Abstract
Fishing on the Sergipe State coast is usually daily but depends on the tide. The main fishing landing port of the municipality of Aracaju is the Aracaju Fishing Terminal (T.P. Aracaju), located in the city center and responsible for 85% of the fishing landings. Data on fishing landings are essential tools for fisheries management, including caught species, fleet size, fishing gear and marketing. Therefore, this study’s aim was to analyze the data collected in the monitoring years from 2010 until 2016 at the T.P. Aracaju observing the developments of fish landings. The Fisheries Landings Monitoring Project - PMPDP specifically monitored and recorded the data at the Terminal Pesqueiro de Aracaju. The results showed that during the monitoring years the landings of fish from 92 vessels, locally called “lancha”, were recorded, of which 50 vessels originated from T.P. Aracaju and the other 42 vessels from other municipalities of Sergipe and other states of Brazil. The total annual production of landed fish was 426t in 2010, 567t in 2011, 504t in 2012, 761t in 2013, 910t in 2014, 822 in 2015 and 737 in 2016. Annual revenue ranged from BRL 2,985,582.00 in 2010 to BRL 8,225,128.7 in 2016, demonstrating that the sale of fish varied little in the years monitored. The work’s results show the real production landed in T.P. Aracaju, on which public policies of fisheries management in the state of Sergipe are based.
