Travel the World of Postage Stamps - Development of fishing industry - Atlantic Cod (Gadus morhua) - Cuba 1975 - Michel Cuba 2033 - my hobby.

Greetings friends!

Fishing is probably the most profitable business, you do not grow anything, do not feed livestock, do not care about crops, or cattle, you, like a mushroom picker, go to harvest.

Yes, there is a costly part, you need to buy a fishing boat, pay for a fishing license, get the necessary permits and go to sea, but someone did it gradually, without colossal costs to start, starting with a small boat, it looks like a way many bloggers in the Hive.

Series Development of fishing industry of postage stamps, issued on the island of Cuba in 1975, shows us the commercial fish and vessels suitable for catching it.

Apparently, the cheaper the pound of fish that you catch, for which you are targeting, the larger the vessel should be.

After all, a ton of cod can cost no more than one tuna, lol.

Yes, exactly the tres, the Atlantic cod, we will see on a postage stamp with a face value of 8 Cuban centavos.

It turns out that the size of the vessel and the cost of fish are inversely proportional to each other, otherwise there is no point in going out to sea for commercial fishing. This is, of course, a rough look, but there is a logical grain to it, lol.

I like this fish baked in the oven with vegetables, but French chefs believe that in order to feel the true taste of this fish, it needs to be steamed.

Let's take a look at this postage stamp.

For my publications, I do not use stock photographs, it is fundamentally important for me to use photographs that I have made with my own hands for publication and I can name them - authorial work.
