European Commission - Fisheries - The Common Fisheries Policy (CFP) is the European Union's instrument for the management of fisheries and aquaculture. It was created to manage a common resource and to meet the obligation set in the original Treaties of the then European Community. Because fish are a natural and mobile resource they are considered as common property. In addition, the Treaties which created the Community stated that there should be a common policy in this area, that is, common rules adopted at EU level and implemented in all Member States.

 

European Association of Fish Producers’ Organisations (EAPO) - European Association of Fish Producers Organisations.

 

The North Sea Commission Fisheries Partnership was founded to promote co-operation between scientists and fishers in monitoring and managing fisheries in the North Sea.

 

Fishery and Aquaculture Country Profile for Denmark - aquatic species caught by country or area, by species items, by FAO major fishing areas, and year, for all commercial, industrial, recreational and subsistence purposes. The harvest from mariculture, aquaculture and other kinds of fish farming is also included.

 

Ministry of Food, Agriculture and Fisheries - It is the task of the Ministry of Food, Agriculture and Fisheries to provide the framework for development and operation of the Danish food producing sector. The goal is to ensure a strong and competitive sector, characterised by quality and sustainability. The Ministry deals with EU agriculture and fisheries policy - policy formulation and administration of various EU subsidy schemes.

 

Dansk Akvakultur - Danish Aquaculture

 

Danish Institute for Fisheries Research - National institute of aquatic resources. Danish Directorate of Fisheries - DTU Aqua with all aspects of sustainable and innovative use of fish and shellfish resources. In the area of commercial fisheries, we are researching fisheries management methods, catch technologies, determination of stock sizes, and how fish stocks are influenced by changes in the marine ecosystem. Our research in commercial fisheries is being put into practice in holistic advice to public-sector authorities and industry. This is advice contributing to and enabling sustainable fisheries.

The Fish in Denmark
It now became possible to obtain fresh fish. Boiled cod became a dish fit for a king, served with potatoes, melted butter and mustard or possibly mustard sauce.

Boiled plaice served simply with melted fresh butter and chopped parsley is no longer common. These days plaice is almost always served fried.

Smoked fish is another speciality from this period. From the late 19th century, the old-fashioned heavy curing ceased and subsequently fat fish were cold-smoked as a means of preservation.

This method was replaced by light curing followed by hot-smoking – exclusively in order to enhance the taste. This technique was used for the specialities smoked herring, smoked mackerel and smoked salmon.

In addition, the Danes ate bay shrimps, which are still bought alive, boiled, peeled and served on a slice of buttered bread.

 

Maritime Denmark
Denmark has long-standing maritime traditions with focus on quality shipping. The Danish Government has launched an agenda for growth in the maritime cluster and offers stable and competitive framework conditions. The Danish maritime administration provides international and expedient service of high quality.

Ocean Health Index Denmark - The Ocean Health Index is a valuable tool for the ongoing assessment of ocean health. By providing a means to advance comprehensive ocean policy and compare future progress, the Index can inform decisions about how to use or protect marine ecosystems. The Index is a collaborative effort, made possible through contributions from more than 65 scientists/ocean experts and partnerships between organizations including the National Center for Ecological Analysis and Synthesis, Sea Around Us, Conservation International, National Geographic, and the New England Aquarium.

Danish Exporters - Denmark's official Export Directory. The fish products and supplies category includes almost everything to do with fish. Even if you think you know everything about fish products and supplies, you are sure to discover something new when taking a closer look at this category.

The fish products and supplies category is extremely diverse. To begin with, it will come as no surprise that it includes leading global players, supplying a variety of both fresh and processed fish and shellfish to customers around the world, while respecting strict industry specific standards for sustainability.

Several Danish companies also belong to the world's leading suppliers of fishmeal and fish oil, striving to keep quality at the very top through the use of advanced technology, often developed by themselves. Today, exporters in this industry can rightly be characterized as specialists.

The same is true of the very important business which has developed around industries like aqua farming and turnkey products like processing plants, fishing equipment etc. For years, Danish companies have been investing considerable amounts of money in research and development for the fishing industry. This has led to a situation where exporters in the fish products and supplies business occupy a leading position in the global industry, exporting know-how and technology alongside fish.

The manufacturers and suppliers within the Fish products and supplies category supply products and services like:

• Aquaculture
• Articles and machinery for Tinned fish production

THE DANISH FISHING EQUIPMENT GROUP
- a member of the Danish Export Association

Denmark’s fishery tradition began more than 1000 years ago. Throughout the years, intensive research and development in methods and equipment has resulted in efficient, advantageous utilisation of fishing resources.

Danish companies invest considerable amounts of money every year in research and development for the fishing industry. An increasing number of worldwide problems have called for new cost-saving equipment in recent years and as competition becomes keener, still higher standards and approvals are demanded for fishing equipment and technology. Danish factories are equipped with modern production machinery and employ effective quality control methods.

The Danish Fishing Equipment Group represents leading Danish companies of all sizes within this industry and function as a link between Danish subcontractors and foreign buyers.

 

DTU National Instute of Marine Resources - Commercial fisheries, aquaculture, fish products, recreational fisheries.
DIFRES works with all aspects of sustainable and innovative use of fish and shellfish resources. In the area of commercial fisheries, we are researching fisheries management methods, catch technologies, determination of stock sizes, and how fish stocks are influenced by changes in the marine ecosystem. Our research in commercial fisheries is being put into practice in holistic advice to public-sector authorities and industry. This is advice contributing to and enabling sustainable fisheries. Commercial fisheries covers four research areas:

Management of fish stocks and fisheries
Research and advice on new and improved methods of fish-stock and fisheries management.

Fish stocks and fisheries - status and forecasts
Monitoring and assessment of stocks and fisheries, and research on more accurate methods for use in future stock assessment and fisheries advice.

Marine ecosystems - status and forecasts
Knowledge about future fisheries possibilities through research into hydrographic changes and changes in the food, behaviour and interplay of fish.

Fisheries technologies - selective fishery
Research into fisheries technologies aimed at improving fishing gear and limiting its effect on the marine environment.
