Cod equivalents
Cod equivalents
The term: "cod equivalent" refers to weight and implies the relative value of different fish species on the market compared to cod. This is set by a regulation every year. For each vessel having a quota for several species the total quota may be calculated in kg as cod equivalents. Quota transfer between vessels is often measured in cod equivalents.
The table below shows all the species that have cod equivalents for the last fishing years (for information further back see the web site of the Directorate of Fisheries)
