'Mini-mussels' - New Opportunities and Environmentally Friendly Production
TL;DRAbstract
About half of the annual world-wide harvest of mussels comes from Europe, with main yields from Spain, France, The Netherlands, and Denmark. In Denmark, the mussel production mainly comes from fishery on wild stocks of blue mussels in Limfjorden. In this fjordsystem the annual landings were about 100,000 tons in the 1990's resulting in overfishing and a subsequent reduction of the mussel stock, and in 2006-2008 the mussel fishery declined to about 30,000 tons per year which led to restrictions and a national policy that aims at developing a sustainable production of cultured mussels in balance with the extensive fishery of mussels.
