These activities can be carried out in natural or planted forests. 021 Silviculture and other forestry activities See class 0210. 0210 Silviculture and other forestry activities This class includes: growing of standing timber: planting, replanting, transplanting, thinning and conserv- — — ing of forests and timber tracts growing of coppice, pulpwood and fire wood — — operation of forest tree nurseries — — These activities can be carried out in natural or planted forests.

Also included are activities that are normally integrated in the process of production for own account (e.g. seeding oysters for pearl production). This division does not include building and repairing of ships and boats (3011, 3315) and sport or recreational fishing activities (9319). Processing of fish, crustaceans or molluscs is excluded, whether at land-based plants or on factory ships (1020). 031 Fishing This group includes capture fishery, i.e. the hunting, collecting and gathering activities directed at removing or collecting live wild aquatic organisms (predominantly fish, mol- luscs and crustaceans) including plants from the oceanic, coastal or inland waters for human consumption and other purposes by hand or more usually by various types of fishing gear such as nets, lines and stationary traps. Such activities can be conducted on the intertidal shoreline (e.g. collection of molluscs such as mussels and oysters) or shore based netting, or from home-made dugouts or more commonly using commercially made boats in inshore, coastal waters or offshore waters. Unlike in aquaculture (group 032), the aquatic resource being captured is usually common property resource irrespec- tive of whether the harvest from this resource is undertaken with or without exploitation rights. Such activities also include fishing restocked water bodies. 0311 Marine fishing This class includes: fishing on a commercial basis in ocean and coastal waters — — taking of marine crustaceans and molluscs — — whale catching — — taking of marine aquatic animals: turtles, sea squirts, tunicates, sea urchins etc. — — This class also includes: activities of vessels engaged both in fishing and in processing and preserving of fish — — gathering of other marine organisms and materials: natural pearls, sponges, coral and — — algae This class excludes: capturing of marine mammals, except whales, e.g. walruses, seals, see 0170 — — processing of fish, crustaceans and molluscs on factory ships or in factories ashore, see — — 1020 renting of pleasure boats with crew for sea and coastal water transport (e.g. for fishing — — cruises), see 5011 fishing inspection, protection and patrol services, see 8423 — — fishing practiced for sport or recreation and related services, see 9319 — — operation of sport fishing preserves, see 9319 — —

Culturing/farming refers to the rearing up to their juvenile and/or adult phase under cap- tive conditions of the above organisms. In addition, aquaculture also encompasses indi- vidual, corporate or state ownership of the individual organisms throughout the rearing or culture stage, up to and including harvesting. 0321 Marine aquaculture This class includes: fish farming in sea water including farming of marine ornamental fish — — production of bivalve spat (oyster mussel etc.), lobsterlings, shrimp post-larvae, fish fry — — and fingerlings growing of laver and other edible seaweeds — — culture of crustaceans, bivalves, other molluscs and other aquatic animals in sea water — — This class also includes: aquaculture activities in brackish waters — — aquaculture activities in salt water filled tanks or reservoirs — — operation of fish hatcheries (marine) — — operation of marine worm farms — — This class excludes: frog farming, see 0322 — — operation of sport fishing preserves, see 9319 — — 0322 Freshwater aquaculture This class includes: fish farming in freshwater including farming of freshwater ornamental fish — — culture of freshwater crustaceans, bivalves, other molluscs and other aquatic animals — — operation of fish hatcheries (freshwater) — — farming of frogs — —
