Resumen
Las pesquerías de crustáceos a nivel mundial, exhiben alta importancia económica. En el Ecuador, este es un recurso pesquero explotado artesanalmente en áreas de manglar, los principales sitios de extracción se encuentran en las provincias de Guayas y El Oro.
Esta pesquería ha sido la base económica de familias que dependen de su extracción y comercialización, es una actividad altamente selectiva, debido a que la pesca se compone únicamente de cangrejos machos. La restricción en la captura de individuos hembras, está dada por una medida de ordenamiento (Acuerdo Ministerial 030) vigente desde el año 2003.
El objetivo de esta investigación es desarrollar una herramienta de manejo de pesquerías para el recurso cangrejo rojo (Ucides occidentalis) en la Reserva Ecológica Manglares Churute, a través de un manejo participativo involucrando a los principales actores (pescadores artesanales) levantando información en campo con asistencia técnica y revisando casos exitosos de manejo pesquero en el país.
Por lo cual se consiguió contar con una base de datos actualizada del sector pesquero artesanal, se elaboró un reglamento de pesca que regula las faenas y se zonificó las zonas de cangrejales en la cual pueden realizar las faenas de pescas las asociaciones que tienen el derecho preferencial de uso.
Crab fisheries around the world are an activity very important economically. In Ecuador, this is a resource used for local communities in mangroves areas, being the provinces of Guayas and El Oro where are the highest sites of extractions. These fisheries have been the main economical income from families that depend of their extraction and commercialization, it is highly selective due to the extraction is only from male crabs. The Ecuadorian ministry of environment has regulated this focal male capture since 2003. It is very important to develop a fishing management of the red crab (Ucides Occidentalis) in the Ecological Reserve of Churute Mangroves, taking in consideration the main actors (local fishermen), rising field information using technical support and using like model others success examples of fishing management. Using a database from the local fisheries, it was developed a regulation of fisheries activities and stablished areas where local fishing associations have the preferential right of use.
