Other pelagic fish, live, fresh or chilled

CPC v2.1 Code: 0426

About other pelagic fish, live, fresh or chilled

cpc code 0426 covers a diverse range of pelagic fish species that are harvested and traded globally. These fish, which live and thrive in the open ocean, play a vital role in marine ecosystems and are an important source of food and income for many coastal communities. The trade in live, fresh, or chilled pelagic fish is a significant component of the broader seafood industry, contributing to global food security and economic development.

Production process

The production of pelagic fish covered under cpc code 0426 typically involves commercial fishing operations using a variety of techniques, such as purse seining, trawling, and long-lining. These methods are designed to efficiently capture large schools of fish that congregate in the open ocean. Once caught, the fish are carefully handled and transported to ensure they remain fresh and of high quality.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of pelagic fish under cpc code 0426 include fishing vessels, specialized fishing gear, fuel, and labor. Additionally, the industry relies on a network of supporting infrastructure, such as ports, processing facilities, and transportation systems, to facilitate the movement of these products from the point of capture to the final consumer.

Production outputs

The primary outputs of the industry covered by cpc code 0426 are live, fresh, or chilled pelagic fish, which are then consumed or further processed. These fish may be used as a direct food source, or they may be used as inputs for other industries, such as 0427 Frozen fish, excluding fish fillets and other fish meat, 0428 Fish fillets and other fish meat, fresh or chilled, or 0429 Fish, dried, salted or in brine; smoked fish. The trade in these pelagic fish products contributes to global food security and supports the livelihoods of millions of people around the world.
