Abstract
Municipal fisheries is one of the three (3) sectors of fisheries, the others being Commercial fisheries and Aquaculture. Municipal fisheries cover fishing in marine and inland waters.The Quarterly Municipal Fisheries Survey (Traditional Landing Centers) is a survey on volume and price of fish unloaded at sample municipal fish landing centers by fishing boats with gross tonnage of three (3) tons and less. Data are collected through personal interview of at least five (5) key informants knowledgeable on the fishing activites at the sample fish landing center. Key informants may be a fisherman, fishing boat operator, fish trader, fish broker, or barangay officials. Monthly volume and price of fish unloaded at the landing centers are gathered on the last week of the last month of the reference quarter.
Data on marine municipal fisheries are collected in fish landing centers where fishermen unload and trade their catch.There are two (2) types of municipal fish landing centers, namely: the traditional and those managed by Philippine Fish Development Authority (PFDA) and Local Government Units (LGUs).
The two types of survey conducted in traditional municipal fish landing centers are the monthly or probability survey and the quarterly or non-probability survey.
For monthly surveys, Statistical Researchers (SRs) are hired to do the actual interview of fishermen unloading at the sample fish landing centers. In the absence of adequate funds intended for the payment of wages for SRs, quarterly surveys are conducted by the regular staff in the Provincial Statistics Offices (PSOs).
The general objective of the survey is to generate information on the quarterly volume and value of fish unloadings by species at the provincial, regional and national levels.
