Live reef food fish (LRFF) fishing and trade
Adapted from Scales et.al. 2006
Live reef food fish (LRFF) is the term used for fish
that are kept alive until cooking in order to preserve
their freshness. (Family Serranidae)
HK imports 13,000 tons in 2002 (official data)
Worth US$ 350 M Koeshendrajana 2006, Sadovy 2003
Total Hk Imports might reach 18,000 tons/year (+unreported)
US$ 450-500 M Muldoon and Scott 2005, Sadovy 2003
Global trade reaches 30,000 tons (HK accounted for 60%)
US$810M – US$1 B

Contested Marine Resources
Actors: public, private,
government
Artisanal vs Large Scale
Everyday struggle
[livelihood, debt, credit, corruption, rent-
seeking, assymetry]
Environmental Debate
[Climate change, Marine Protected Areas
(MPA), sea level rise, fish depletion,
conservation, certification]
Illegal Unregulted Unreported
(IUU) Fishing
Border conflict [black fleet, fish
robbery]
Commodity fetishism

Food For Thought
• Actors [place based and non-placed based, ...]
• Commodification [produces nature in myriads ways]
• Place and space [where decision are made, where decision applied...]
• Networks and institution [rules, regulation, structure,centrality,...]
• Scale
• Discourses [Economic, Environmental, Nation-state, Social, Political,...]
• Everyday struggle [livelihood, debt, corruption, gender relations,...]
