Popis: | In Côte d'Ivoire, like other continental waters, many dam lakes in the North are exploited for fishing purposes. This activity provides local communities fish for consumption and income through the economic activities it generates. Therefore, sustainable management of these fisheries is necessary. For this purpose, fishing on the Solomougou Dam Lake was investigated in 2018 in order to analyse the current state of exploited fish resources. The investigation provided data on production factors with reference to fishermen’s sociological profiles and the type of fishing gears used, on the ichthyological composition of catches and on stocks exploitation parameters of abundant species caught. This paper is a review of those previous studies. It is completed on the one hand using information on conservation and the vulnerability status of the whole species and on the other hand using stocks exploitation parameters of a second group of species secondarily abundant in catches. |
