Other Media | La Voz de Galicia: More fresh jack mackerel as coastal fleets gain quota
SPAIN
Saturday, May 28, 2022
With plenty of horse mackerel from Fisterra to the south, where until a few days ago around 2% of the quotas available to Spain had been caught, the coastal fleet of northwestern Spain needs more quota in the northern fringe of Galicia, from Fisterra, and in the rest of the Bay of Biscay. That is why purse seiners and trawlers welcome an increase in the quota that for consumers will mean a greater supply of this fresh blue fish, just at the moment when demand increases, due to the arrival of the heat and, above all, because it is usually affordable and with endless elaborations in the kitchen.

BioMar is the first global aquafeed supplier to adopt this 1.5°C path to net zero under the Science Based Targets (SBTi) initiative.
The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) has stated that greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions must be cut in half by 2030 and reach zero by 2050 to avoid the worst effects of climate change. To achieve this goal, private and public entities must follow a line of reductions to keep global warming below 1.5 ºC.
We understand and support the closure of areas where vulnerable ecosystems exist” to protect the oceans and biodiversity, emphasizes Iván López, president of the European Bottom Fishing Alliance (EBFA). But not with "scientific gaps and without evaluating the enormous socio-economic consequences for fishermen and for food security." For this reason, at the same time that it arms itself with arguments, the fleet calls for dialogue with the European Commission
