Fishing In Puglia
A fisherman at work on the fishing boat docked at the port of Molfetta on November 16, 2022. Fishing in Puglia With over 900 km of coastline, Puglia is one of the Italian regions with an important and dating back tradition in the sectors of fishing, aquaculture and the processing and marketing of fish and products deriving from its processing. One of the most important fleets in Italy operates along the coast, with fishing boats from Manfredonia, Molfetta, Bari, Brindisi, Gallipoli and Taranto. The Apulian shipping is the second in Italy with production exceeding 13% of the national one. The fish sector, with its 2,200 operators, has a turnover of over 350 million euros, equal to 18% of national production. The reconnaissance of infrastructures and services dedicated to this sector, if its strengths have been understood, has at the same time highlighted critical issues that characterize it. One is environmental, that is, it is relative: the conditions of the seabed of the Apulian ports detected following bathymetric and topographical surveys, potentially useful to the Municipalities for dredging and nourishment interventions to coastal erosion phenomena, i.e. it provides useful indications for the planning and monitoring of maritime works The other is linked to pollution, in particular the management of waste collected at sea deriving from fishing activity.
