New study calls for fishing restrictions in some areas of European seas

New study calls for fishing restrictions in some areas of European seas SHARES in Frontiers in Marine Science has provided an evaluation of which regions of southern European seas are in the most need of fishing restrictions. According to the study, these areas have persistently shown high numbers of undersized fish and crustaceans, which are typically discarded because they are below the allowable size limit for collection. These findings may offer a strategy for prioritising conservation efforts and ensuring more sustainable fishery management in the future. “Natural fish populations need time to reproduce and recover from fishing impacts – this is the only way to achieve a balance between natural resources and human exploitation,” said lead author Dr Giacomo Milisenda, of the Stazione Zoologica Anton Dohrn di Napoli in Italy.

Mediterranean, Black Sea fish stocks could be turning the corner, GFCM report finds

Mediterranean, Black Sea fish stocks could be turning the corner, GFCM report finds By Share After decades of increasing human pressures on Mediterranean and Black Sea marine ecosystems and fisheries resources, the overexploitation of the region’s fish stocks may finally be easing up, a new report from the General Fisheries Commission for the Mediterranean (GFCM) suggests. According to the FAO statutory body’s latest biennial report, “The State of Mediterranean and Black Sea Fisheries,” or SoMFi 2020, while 75 percent of fish stocks remain subject to overfishing, this fell by more than 10 percent between 2014 and 2018. Exploitation ratios are also down by a similar proportion.
