Introduction: in recent years, Costa Rica has cultivated a large number of tilapia and exported them to European and American markets after processing, which has achieved considerable success According to the statistics report of Costa Rica's Ministry of foreign trade, in 2000, 25000 tons of tilapia were exported and processed, earning 150 million US dollars in foreign exchange In the first half of 2001, tilapia exports increased by US $5 million compared with the same period last year, and it is expected that the annual export volume will increase by 300 tons compared with last year At present, the tilapia market in Europe and the United States is still in short supply However, what the European and American markets need is processed tilapia fish ribs and segments, frozen and fresh.
