Description:The commercial fishing industry of Cuba is an important source of seafood products originating from the Gulf of Mexico and Caribbean region. Cuba has played an increasingly important role in the world market for seafood products, particularly for high-valued finfish and shellfish. However, Cuba's agricultural and natural resource-based industries, which have grown dependent on subsidized imported fuel oil, may be in a state of flux. As the U.S. seafood industry strives to enhance its competitiveness in the global market, and domestic fisheries managers attempt to be more effective in developing policy, a need exists to better understand the role Cuba plays in the world market. This paper represents a brief attempt to describe and characterize the Cuban fisheries industry with available secondary data and related information.
