Abstract [en]
Regulations concerning salmon in the Baltic Sea were made more restrictive in order to save the wild spawning stocks.
Financial support to the fisheries sector has risen substantially since Sweden acceded to the EU.
In aquaculture, weak market conditions persisted, hitting the industry hard.
The total catch was down nearly 12 per cent compared with 1995, but its value was up by 9 per cent. The volume of fish landed in other countries increased.
Consumption of fish increased.
Sweden was again a net importer of fish and fish products, lead by shellfish. However, exports of processed products, especially products made of herring, rose, spurred by the creation of new export opportunities following the country’s accession to the EU.
