Abstract

The coastal pelagics value chain in Sao Tome and Principe is one of 12 VCs competitively selected from over 70 proposals worldwide for support from the FISH4ACP programme. This report presents the outputs of analysis and design work completed between 2021 and 2022 to conclude a functional analysis of the VC, assess its sustainability and resilience, develop an upgrading strategy to which the FISH4ACP programme will contribute, and plan for full implementation from March 2023. In Sao Tome and Principe, the coastal pelagic fisheries VC targeted by the FISH4ACP programme is composed of the following eight species: flying fishes (Exocoetidae sp), little tunny (Euthynnus alletteratus), frigate tuna (Auxis thazard), bigeye scad (Selar crumenophthalmus), Decapterus nei, blue runner (Caranx crysos), balao halfbeak (Hemiramphus balao) and skipjack tuna (Katsuwonus pelamis). The two tuna-like species, little tunny and frigate tuna, are normally identified as a single species in Sao Tome and Principe and are called locally fulu fulu tuna. This is the name used in the report to refer to both species.
