Abstract

“Shellfish gathering in Galicia generates work for around 5,000 women and 4,000 men gatherers. What is produced must pass through the lonja (auction). Only the specific quantities of particular species approved through agreements established between cofradia (see interview) and the regional administration under the junta can be extracted. Through this, we avoid saturating the market and are able to conserve resources, select for quality and control prices.”
