HAVANA, Cuba, Sept 30 (acn) Over 270 metric tons of lobster were
captured in September by crews belonging to the Gerardo Medina Cardentey
Fishing Compound in westernmost Pinar del Rio province, according to an
official report issued by this company.
Cuban News Agency
Luis Leonel Lima, deputy director of this compound located in La Coloma
town, reported that the planning up to September was to capture 58.8
tons of lobsters, but even after the devastation caused by hurricanes
Ike and Gustav to the infrastructure, especially in the roofing of the
storage facilities, they were able to increase the level of capture four
times. This compound completed the year's plan with 1,045 tons.
Lobster's capture must stop now due to the beginning of the close season
in October and November. Japan and the European Union are the main
destination for this product, processed under demanding quality, hygiene
and efficiency norms, in order to assure its commercialization, greatly
needed at this difficult time for Cuban economy.
