Turbot

Overview

Of the 20 species assessed by GAPI, turbot is the smallest sector, accounting for just 0.2% of global marine finfish aquaculture production in 2007. Production occurs primarily in Europe, specifically France and Spain. With an overall species score of 63, turbot ranks fifth out of the 20 species assessed by GAPI. While France and Spain perform similarly across indicators, significant differences in performance are apparent in antibiotic use (ANTI) and BOD.
