这项研究是在加拿大纽芬兰西海岸的邦恩湾地区进行的。作为探索渔业对社区粮食安全贡献的案例研究，进行了海产食品消费调查。调查结果显示，家庭更喜欢吃本地海鲜而不是进口海鲜。鱼类植物和家庭/朋友网络是当地海鲜的主要来源。然而，调查结果也显示，大多数本地鱼类和贝类的消费量下降。调查结果是根据对当地家庭和捕鱼者的采访结果进行的。文章最后提出了加强渔业对社区粮食安全贡献的建议。
This study was carried out in the Bonne Bay region on the west coast of Newfoundland, Canada. A seafood consumption survey was undertaken as a case study for exploring fisheries contributions to community food security. The findings show that households prefer eating local over imported seafood. Fish plants and networks of family/friends are the main sources for local seafood. However, the results also show a decline in consumption of most local fish and shellfish species. Survey results are contextualized by findings from interviews with local households and fish harvesters. The article concludes with recommendations for strengthening the contributions of fisheries to community food security.
