Socio-economic profile of the small scale fisher: The sample of Akçakoca

Akçakoca, which acts as a bridge between the Marmara Region and the Black Sea Region, has been selected as a research area because it is one of the most important ports of the Western Black Sea and small-scale fishing is among the important income sources of the district residents. As a matter of fact, there are 200 licensed fishermen and 40 licensed boats in the district according to official data. There is also 1 aquaculture cooperative and 75 businesses that sell fish retail in the district. In the research, it has been tried to understand to what extent the studies conducted so far to find solutions to the problems of fisheries in the region have been effective in the life of small-scale fishermen. For this purpose, face-to-face surveys were conducted with 35 boat owners who could be reached, and the socio-economic status of the boat owners was examined, and the results were evaluated through the SPSS statistics program.
