Implementación de procesos de sostenibilidad para pesca de camarón silvestre ecuatoriano en la zona 8 en barcos industriales de arrastre.

Abstract

Trawling is extremely harmful to the marine ecosystem, so it is important to adopt methods that guarantee the development of a sustainable practice; for this, the economic theory with a focus on sustainability, the Heckscher-Ohlin model and the theory of production are contemplated. The objective of this project is to develop a methodological proposal related to the implementation of sustainability processes in ointment-type wild shrimp fishing companies, with trawlers from zone 8 of GuayasEcuador, to ensure a sustainable future for the aquaculture sector. and of society in general. For this, the methodology used is a mixed approach, under a nonexperimental transactional design, the methods applied were descriptive and empirical. The population to be surveyed is represented by ten companies in the shrimp sector of zone 8, the demonstrated was occasionally simple, while the technique used was the survey. According to the results obtained, it is concluded that the factors that influence the sustainability of shrimp trawling refer to illegal, unreported and unregulated fishing, overfishing, the use of destructive trawling techniques and the lack of financial knowledge. Consequently, the proposal was based on the inclusion of sustainable drag techniques, technological development, energy efficiency, social and economic sustainability.
