Abstract
In tropical conditions there is a considerable loss in quality during handling and trading. The ambient shell lives of most species of tropical fish are fairly short, most species spoiling within a few hours after landing unless adequately iced. Implementation of quality control measures and HACCP compliance is more focused with respect to the seafood processing plants. However, the hazards prevailing outside the fish processing plants have a significant effect on the subsequent quality of the raw material to be processed. In this study an attempt is made to assess such pre-processing hazards at the Veraval fish landing centre in Gujarat, so as to develop a holistic approach to the seafood quality assurance programmes.
