Title

MMO1051 Offshore Shellfish Mussel Farm Lease Sites

Abstract

Data outputs from MMO 1051 Fishing and Aquaculture trends project. The aim of the project was to provide an analysis of fishing and aquaculture trends in England using currently available evidence. This will be used in the development of scenarios for marine plans which span 20 years and complement trends information relating to the other listed Marine Policy Statement sectors. The project will identify key knowledge gaps and make recommendations on how the evidence base for fisheries trends could be improved for marine planning.

The offshore rope cultured mussel farms were digitised from a georectified map taken from http://www.offshoreshellfish.com/ . This data layer cannot be used as exact locations as no coordinates were supplied. For full details and caveats see the report "MMO (2013) Future trends in Fishing and Aquaculture in the South Inshore and Offshore Marine Plan Areas. A report produced for the Marine Management Organisation, pp 2. MMO Project No: 1051."
