A fish fillet processor processes fish into a fillet. Fish processing starts from the time the fish is caught. Popular species processed include cod, hake, haddock, tuna, herring, mackerel, salmon and pollock . Commercial fish processing is a global practice. Processing varies regionally in productivity, type of operation, yield and regulation.
Farmed tilapia production in 2002 worldwide was about 1.5 million tonnes (1.7 million short tons) annually, with an estimated value of US$1.8 billion, about equal to those of salmon and trout. Unlike carnivorous fish, tilapia can feed on algae or any plant-based food.
The Central Institute of Fisheries Technology (CIFT) was formed in 1954 and started functioning in 1957 from its headquarters in Kochi. It is considered to be the only institute where research facilities are available in all disciplines related to fishing and fish processing. [3] CIFT is an ISO/IEC 17025:2005 NABL accredited and ISO 9001:2015 ...
A medieval view of fish processing, by Peter Brueghel the Elder (1556). There is evidence humans have been processing fish since the early Holocene. For example, fishbones (c. 8140–7550 BP, uncalibrated) at Atlit-Yam, a submerged Neolithic site off Israel, have been analysed. What emerged was a picture of "a pile of fish gutted and processed ...

American zoologist G. H. Parker found that the largest suckers on a giant Pacific octopus are about 6.4 cm (2.5 in) and can support 16 kg (35 lb) each. The only other possible contender for the largest species of octopus is the seven-arm octopus ( Haliphron atlanticus ), based on a 61-kilogram (134-pound), incomplete carcass estimated to have a ...
Overall length. Standard length ( SL) is the length of a fish measured from the tip of the snout to the posterior end of the last vertebra or to the posterior end of the midlateral portion of the hypural plate. This measurement excludes the length of the caudal (tail) fin. [1] Total and fork length of a fish. Total length ( TL) is the length of ...
Configuration management ( CM) is a systems engineering process for establishing and maintaining consistency of a product's performance, functional, and physical attributes with its requirements, design, and operational information throughout its life. [1] [2] The CM process is widely used by military engineering organizations to manage changes ...
