    NFRDI's role in reducing trade barrier on canned sardine (Sardinella lemuru) in the world market
    Montojo, Ulysses M.; Torres, Francisco SB. Jr.; Baldoza, Bernajocele Jalyn S.; Garcia, Lilian C. (National Fisheries Research and Development Institute, 2020)
    In 2016 and 2017, the Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources (BFAR) reported that the European Union (EU) importers of sardines in Germany and Netherlands are refusing shipments labelled as Sardinella spp. or S. lemuru. They claimed that these species are not compliant with the EU standards.Export documentations in CY2016 and 2017 respectively showed a total volume of 403 tons and 431 tons, with estimated value of USD980,434.97 and USD1,048,381.51. But, consummated shipments amounted only to USD401,806.80 (165 tons) in CY2016 and USD562,191.20 (231 tons) in CY 2017. Thus, for two (2) consecutive years, opportunity loss totaled USD1,064,818.48.
