Morocco hosts international fishing exhibition
An international fishing exhibition draws to a close in the Moroccan city of Agadir today (Sunday).
The Halieutis Exhibition aims to promote Morocco's fishing industry and has brought together delegations from 37 countries.
Fishing boats return to port in Agadir.
Morocco is a leading fish producer in Africa with the country's waters home to some of the richest fishing zones in the world.
This is one of 16 Moroccan ports dotted along the Atlantic coastline - six more are found on Morocco's Mediterranean shores.
The fishing industry says it directly supports around 170,000 jobs and contributes around 2.3 percent to the national GDP.
Related industries mean it's a source of income for some 670,000 people.
86,000 tonnes of fish were caught off Agadir last year. But fishermen say it is still difficult to make a profit in this business.
Captain Mostafa Chriaa is one of 15,000 fishermen based at Agadir.
He says operating costs often outstrip the price he's paid for his catch.
A minimum price for fish should be fixed because we face lot of problems. We pay for the fuel, the seamen's salaries and for the equipment, not to mention the dangers we face, he says.
After all that, when we return to port, we are surprised by the low price of fish. It is something that hurts after all the adventures because everything falls apart, he explains.
But the authorities are working to improve the industry.
Agadir is hosting the Halieutis Exhibition, a conference dedicated to the fishing sector.
It brings together 37 countries, around 20 of them from Africa.
300 Moroccan and international exhibitors are showcasing their work.
The exhibition shares its name with the Halieutis Strategy, a government initiative to make the industry more competitive and sustainable.
It's already achieved positive results, including the upgrade of boats and fishing vessels. There has also been investment in infrastructure - such as new fish markets - and improvements in combating illegal and un-declared fishing.
But the Moroccan Minister for Agriculture and Fisheries, Aziz Akhannouch, says there are still areas for improvement.
We still have a lot to do because we are midway in this plan, he says.
We still need to deploy lots of efforts in the fields of control, traceability and regulations. We also need to facilitate procedures to make private investment more attractive, explains Akhannouch.
The Halieutis Strategy has also had some success marketing Moroccan seafood both nationally and internationally.
And the companies which are attending this conference hope it will be an opportunity to find more customers.
Said Mahboub, General Manager of fishing company Dakhlapes, was at the previous exhibitions in 2011 and 2013.
He credits it with an improvement in trade.
The result is positive for the sector. This plan boosted our sales. While we were selling one or two million Dirhams ($100,000 - $200,000 USD), today we sell five to ten million Dirhams ($500,000 - $1 million USD), he says.
Every two years, we improve our revenues and we meet new clients from Japan, Europe, China and from other nationalities that are making bigger orders, Mahboub says.
The conference has attracted exhibitors from across the world.
Russian, Guinean and Sengalese delegations are marketing their services.
The new European Commissioner for Environment, Maritime Affairs and Fisheries is here to address the exhibition.
It's Karmenu Vella's first trip outside the European Union since he took up the post.
And he's using the visit to sign an aquaculture agreement between the EU and Morocco.
He hopes it will mean better links between the EU and African countries.
Small scale fishermen hope that means they'll get more for their catch when it's auctioned in the markets.
