Profile of the Present Study The fisheries sector of El Salvador is divided into three large categories: industrial shrimp trawling for export purposes; products mostly marketed in the local market; and artisanal fisheries in inland waters such as lakes and lagoons. In addition to the above, aquaculture (tilapia and shrimp farming) is also practiced, although at a very small scale and is generally not very developed in terms of commercialization. Regarding the fish product processing sector, with the exception of shrimp exports, the only processing carried out is fish drying (and salt bathing) by the fishers themselves or middlemen, and the manufacture of ice on a small scale. The fisheries sector represents a small percentage of the national economy: only 0.4% of GDP and 3.9% of the agricultural sector GDP. However, it is a very important sector from the perspective of the acquisition of foreign currency through exports and employment. According to statistics of the Fisheries and Aquaculture Development Center (CENDEPESCA) of MAG, as shown in the graph below, the total Salvadoran catch experienced growth from 8,362 MT in 1986 to 14,999 MT in 1995. However, this figure declined to 9,755 MT in 2000. From the total catch of 9,755 MT, 6,665 MT corresponds to sea fisheries, of which 2,099 MT (32%) is for industrial fisheries, and 4,566 MT (68%) for artisanal fisheries. The decline in the catch over the past few years is partly due to the impact of Hurricane Mitch (1998) and deterioration of the fisheries ground environment. However, pressure of overexploitation that is gradually affecting the availability of coastal resources also cannot be ignored. Originally, El Salvador’s artisanal fisheries lagged in terms of development of fishing techniques, fishery management, processing of fishery products, and fisheries cooperatives, with low productivity that has worsened over the past couple of years. i MT 16,000 14,000 12,000 10,000 8,000 Inland Fisheries 6,000 4,000 Sea Fisheries 2,000 0 Year 86 7 88 9 90 1 3 4 6 98 00 98 98 99 99 99 99 19 1 19 1 19 1 1992 1 1 1995 1 1997 19 1999 20 Source: Fishery and Aquaculture Statistics 2000 Figure: History of Fisheries Production in El Salvador Inland water fisheries are only artisanal and mainly target tilapia in lakes. Nevertheless, this sub-sector is significant as it represents one quarter of the total national catch. Notwithstanding, the catch also experienced a temporary increase between 1986 and the mid-1990s, from 1,816 MT to 4,000-5,000 MT, respectively, but has since followed a downward trend similar to sea fisheries, which saw their catch halved in 1999 (2,653 MT). The rescue of artisanal fishers from poverty is one of the social tasks facing the Government. In addition to low productivity and a deficiency of social services in fishery communities, there has been an increase of artisanal fishers due to the migration of refugees to coastal areas to escape the conflict that plagued the country from 1979-1992. This is also one of the causes of the poverty that persists in coastal fishery communities, and it is common to find families living on remittances sent from relatives who have emigrated to the United States in search of work. Within this context, the present Study has been developed to provide support to CENDEPESCA and prepare a Master Plan aimed at the comprehensive development of artisanal fisheries to increase employment opportunities, mitigate poverty in coastal areas, and promote fish consumption in an effort to increase the rate of food self-sufficiency. For 2 years, beginning from September 2000, activities mainly focused on collecting necessary information and implementing the pilot projects listed below. (1) Fisheries Statistics Improvement Project (2) Project in Support of the Formation of Fishers’ Organizations (3) Women’s Economic Status Improvement Project ii (4) Artisanal Fisheries Diversification Project 2. Current state of the fisheries sector in El Salvador (1) Fishing Society Originally, artisanal fishing in El Salvador was carried out by peasants living in coastal areas for self-sufficiency, and its history as an economic activity it only dates back to the 1950’s. Particularly since 1960, the number of permanent residents in fishing villages has increased. At the same time, as a result of an increase in political violence in the northern and eastern regions from the late 1970’s to late 1980’s, there has been an increase in the number of people migrating from inland areas to fishing villages and from the northern and eastern regions to the west region. Construction of social infrastructure of the fishing communities including roads, electricity, schools, etc., begun in the 1970s, but was delayed due to prolonged political violence in the 1980s. The signature of the Agreement of Chapultepec in 1992 marked the restart of projects and many fishing communities were provided with water supply systems, health posts and telephone services.

  • SUSTAINABLE FISHERIES and RESPONSIBLE AQUACULTURE: a Guide for USAID Staff and Partners
    SUSTAINABLE FISHERIES AND RESPONSIBLE AQUACULTURE: A Guide for USAID Staff and Partners June 2013 ABOUT THIS GUIDE GOAL This guide provides basic information on how to design programs to reform capture fisheries (also referred to as “wild” fisheries) and aquaculture sectors to ensure sound and effective development, environmental sustainability, economic profitability, and social responsibility. To achieve these objectives, this document focuses on ways to reduce the threats to biodiversity and ecosystem productivity through improved governance and more integrated planning and management practices. In the face of food insecurity, global climate change, and increasing population pressures, it is imperative that development programs help to maintain ecosystem resilience and the multiple goods and services that ecosystems provide. Conserving biodiversity and ecosystem functions are central to maintaining ecosystem integrity, health, and productivity. The intent of the guide is not to suggest that fisheries and aquaculture are interchangeable: these sectors are unique although linked. The world cannot afford to neglect global fisheries and expect aquaculture to fill that void. Global food security will not be achievable without reversing the decline of fisheries, restoring fisheries productivity, and moving towards more environmentally friendly and responsible aquaculture. There is a need for reform in both fisheries and aquaculture to reduce their environmental and social impacts. USAID’s experience has shown that well-designed programs can reform capture fisheries management, reducing threats to biodiversity while leading to increased productivity, incomes, and livelihoods. Agency programs have focused on an ecosystem-based approach to management in conjunction with improved governance, secure tenure and access to resources, and the application of modern management practices.

Navarrete-Tindall*, W. Sue Bartelette*, and Casi Lock** Lincoln University of Missouri Cooperative Extension, Native Plants Program* Independent Consultant** Abstract A delegation from Lincoln University (LU) Cooperative Extension of Missouri partic- ipated in a 12-day exchange program that included visits to communities and institutions in Central and Western El Salvador. The delegation included LU Native Plants Program (LU-NPP) staff and members of four communities in Missouri. The objectives were: 1. For the LU delega- tion to be immersed in the Salvadoran culture and learn how communities protect their resources and use native plants in their daily lives; 2. To exchange lessons learned between the LU-NPP, Salvadoran educators, producers, farmers, and communities; and 3. Identify organizations or agencies interested in forming alliances with the LU-NPP. Joint collaborative efforts between LU and organizations in El Salvador will help empower small farmers and will further advance agricultural and ecological education for low-income students in El Salvador and in Missouri. During site visits, local leaders from different agencies and community organizations and the LU delegation engaged in conversations to learn from each other’s experiences. Salva- doran specialists were surprised to learn that Lincoln University also works with low-income communities and that farms in Missouri do not only grow cash crops.

RESISTANCE, THE CHURCH, AND A COMPARISON OF CERAMICS FROM SIXTEENTH-CENTURY CALUCO, EL SALVADOR Alison D. Hodges 154 Pages This thesis examines ceramics from the church of San Pedro y San Pablo, Caluco, El Salvador, to investigate the pressures of Spanish evangelization during the Colonial Period. It compares the church’s ceramic assemblage to two privately-owned houses, also within Caluco. Examining choices in ceramic styles for serving food and drink is one way to examine the colonial policies of reducción, which were to instill a regular, commonplace Christian order in everyday life. The materials in question were a large number of Spanish majolicas, as well as 300 locally-made vessels, and form, decoration, and ware was noted for each. The relative importance of majolica versus majolica attributes on indigenous-made pottery shows that practices in the shadow of the church were distinct from those farther away.

Es de hacer notar que como mancomunidad tiene un peso poblacional importante ya que alberga un 4% de la población total del país.1 Los problemas que más aquejan a estos municipios son en orden de importancia: Disposición final de los desechos sólidos, Recuperación del Medio ambiente, Educación, Infraestructura vial, Desempleo, Ordenamiento territorial y Seguridad ciudadana.2 La pobreza de la zona (40.44% de hogares pobres según la EHPM 2003), coexiste con la falta de recursos de la municipalidad, ya que aunque son muchas las iniciativas, pocas agendas se pueden realizar ya que no se cuenta con los recursos necesarios, esto puede atentar con la asociatividad de la zona. La actividad productiva predominante de la mancomunidad es la agropecuaria. En todos ellos es común el cultivo de granos básicos el que fundamentalmente se destina para el sustento familiar. Otros cultivos son el café, sin embargo, la crisis del mismo ha generado altos niveles de desempleo en estos municipios y elevados índices de desnutrición infantil.
