The report also noted losses of 4.86 per cent for inland fisheries and 8.76 per cent for marine fisheries.

Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

These losses are cited as reducing incomes and raising supply-chain costs across the sector. The study highlighted that structural challenges, such as the high proportion of small agricultural holdings, limit the efficiency of large-load infrastructure like modern packhouses and refrigerated transport.
