Abstract

In Hungary the total fish pond area in the last 5 years varied between 22800-24300 hectares, while the fish production reached 20 000 tons. 64% of the total harvest was market size fish. In the years 2006 and 2007 the production of common carp decreased in absolute value, but the share of silver carp did not increased due to the boom of intensive rearing systems. On the 5 years average the rate of common carp was 66.4%, while the silver carp shared 12.3% in the production structure of Hungarian aquaculture. There was a marked increase in the field of intensive fish rearing. Within the total market size fish production the share of these carnivorous species reached a value of 12.4% by the end of 2008, resulting a relative decrease in herbivorous fish production. The importance of the consumption of silver carp based on it is high content in PUFA. These unsaturated fatty acids are advantegous for the function of human blood circulation. A number of clinical trials proved, that the fatty acid structure of silver carp is similar to marine fish species. Present study investigates the production structure of Hungarian aquaculture, regarding to the production, commerce, nutritional value and consumer’s habits. Emphasize the commerce of processed and value added fish products. Details can be find about the product developing research and the launch of the products to the domestic food market. The study presents the most actual and effective product path and the structure of fish commerce as well as logistics following the Hungarian accession to European Union.
