Abstract
The objective of the study was to present the results of anchovy stock assessment for one period (1989-1990) of surveys and to estimate maximum sustainable yield on the basis of the estimated spawning biomass. Anchovy stock has not been fully exploited during that period but was decreasing and affected by long term fluctuations in biomass.
