Equal to rate of growth plus rate of recruitment less rate of natural mortality—all in terms of weight and on an instantaneous basis. In a "balanced" or equilibrium fishery, this increment replaces what is removed by fishing, and rate of surplus production is numerically equal to rate of fishing. 2, record 2, English, - instantaneous%20rate%20of%20surplus%20production
