Resumo
Neste artigo, foi calculada e comparada a renda média de pescadores de pequena escala, que operam em dois reservatórios urbanos no Brasil: na Represa Billings (127 km²), localizada na região metropolitana da cidade de São Paulo, e no Lago Paranoá (38 km²), localizado em Brasília (DF). Ambas as pescarias são baseadas em espécies exóticas, principalmente a Tilápia do Nilo, Oreochromis niloticus (mais de 80% das capturas). Os pescadores da Represa Billings têm um ganho médio diário de R$ 17,75 (U$ 8,4), empregando principalmente a rede-de-espera. Os pescadores do Lago Paranoá têm um ganho médio diário de R$ 46,58 (U$ 24,9), empregando principalmente a tarrafa. A renda dos pescadores de Brasília é estatisticamente superior à dos pescadores de São Paulo (P < 0.01). O lucro dessas pescarias é explicado pela natureza do reservatório (Paranoá ou Billings) e pelos dias de pesca. Devido ao aumento da violência na região metropolitana de São Paulo, as pescarias na Represa Billings estão desaparecendo.
The income of small-scale fisheries of two urban reservoirs in Brazil: Represa Billings (127 km²) located in the metropolitan region of São Paulo, the capital city of the state of São Paulo and Lago Paranoá (38 km²) located in Brasília (DF), the capital city of Brazil were calculated and compared. Both fisheries are mainly based on the alien Nile tilapia Oreochromis niloticus (more than 80% of the total catch). Although these reservoirs are nearly 900 km apart, their native fish fauna belong to the Upper Paraná Province. The Represa Billings fishers have, on average, a daily profit of R$ 15.8 (U$ 8.4 mostly employing gill nets) and Lago Paranoá fishers R$ 46.6 (U$ 24.9, mostly employing cast nets), which is a statistically significant difference (P < 0.001). The profit of the fisheries is explained by the factor reservoir and covariate days of fishing. Due to the increasing violence in the metropolitan region of São Paulo, the Represa Billings fishery is vanishing.
