Abstract

This manual describes three loss assessment methods developed in the artisanal postharvest fishery sector for use by researchers working for the development of artisanal fisheries in countries worldwide. The methods are the Informal Fish Loss Assessment Method (IFLAM), Load Tracking (LT) and the Questionnaire Loss Assessment Method (QLAM). They are designed to give the user the quantitative and qualitative understanding of post-harvest fish losses required for planning loss reduction measures. The improved understanding generated by application of the methods will also inform the fisheries planner and policy-maker with regard to decisions concerning the development of the artisanal post-harvest sector and the improvement of the livelihoods of those working in the sector.
