FACILITATING RIGHT ANSWERS TO THE MARKET REQUEST
GLOBALG.A.P Secretariat | Page 29!
! FAO Technical Guidelines for AquacultureCertification were referenced at all times
through the last four years revision process.
The demand for fish from world consumers is
only going to increase; we need therefore to
ensure a high rate of production growth
following sustainable practices and with
certification adhering to the FAO certification
guidelines. Operationslike those that are
described here are needed to facilitate the right
decisions among producers and consumers.
