After a long break, the Russian delegation, at the invitation of the Chinese side, arrived in Zhuhai (China) to hold the Thirty-First Session of the Joint Russian-Chinese Commission for Cooperation in the Field of Fisheries. The Commission was established to implement the Agreement between the Government of the USSR and the Government of the PRC on cooperation in the field of fisheries of October 4, 1988.

The head of the Chinese delegation noted that Russian-Chinese relations in the field of fisheries are a priority, in connection with which the visit of Russian representatives is the first among foreign delegations after the lifting of restrictions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. 

The parties will consider issues of joint protection of sturgeon and salmon species in the border waters of the Amur and Ussuri rivers, as well as proposals for restoring their stocks by releasing juveniles border territories.

2023 marks the 35th anniversary of cooperation between Russia and China in the field of fisheries. 

The experience gained in cooperation allows us to plan fishing activities in the long term and increase fish stocks. Close cooperation between the specialists of the two countries, as before, will continue in the intersessional period.

Total trade turnover between Russia and China from January to February 2023 increasedby 25.9%.

On land, just like at sea, everyday life has its difficulties. Inevitably, marine life divides thousands of families between these two spaces. Those who set sail, traditionally men, will have to weather storms to extract protein from the ocean. They become sustenance, as are those that remain and must weather the storms that take place on the surface.

IN BRIEF - Miyagi Yogin price starts high, trading at 1,100 yen per kilogram

JAPAN
Tuesday, March 07, 2023

Farmed coho salmon from Miyagi Prefecture was landed for the first time this year at the Ishinomaki fish market on the 3rd, and was traded at a high price of over 1,100 yen per kilo.

Coho salmon from Miyagi Prefecture landed for the first time at the Ishinomaki Fish Market (5:30 am on the 3rd) -->

Although there were concerns about the impact of the decline in the price of the competing Chilean product, the popularity of the Miyagi product, which is excellent in freshness and quality, is exceptional. The spread of the new coronavirus has subsided, economic activity has become active, and the supply of fresh fish has generally decreased. While some buyers were worried about the negative spread, producers said, "Amid high prices, this is the best encouragement."

A farmer at Ayukawa Beach in Ishinomaki City landed 7.1 tons (approximately 5,000 fish). All of them are ice-cold products, and Ishinomaki Fish Market put up a bid as its own brand "Kinka Gin", which is quickly processed with clean and sterilized seawater ice. The weight of one fish was mainly 1.2 to 1.5 kilograms.

IN BRIEF - Alaska House passes resolution to protect Southeast Alaska’s troll fisheries from lawsuit

UNITED STATES
Tuesday, March 07, 2023

The Alaska House of Representatives passed a resolution to protect Southeast Alaska’s troll fishery on Wednesday. House Joint Resolution 5 calls for state and federal agencies to defend Alaska’s troll fisheries from a lawsuit that seeks to hold them accountable for the decline in killer whales in the Puget Sound area. The legislation passed on a 35-to-1 vote.

Rep. David Eastman, serving District 27 in Wasilla, was the only “no” vote.

The complainant is the Wild Fish Conservancy, a conservation organization based in Washington. Their official position is that terminating Southeast’s king salmon troll fishery might allow Chinook salmon to migrate back down the coast through key hunting grounds of the Southern Resident killer whales.

The resolution to protect Alaska’s troll fishery was introduced by freshman Rep. Rebecca Himschoot of Sitka, who sits on the House Special Committee on Fisheries.

Many of the region’s local governments have passed similar resolutions opposing the lawsuit, including Juneau, Petersburg, Wrangell, Ketchikan and Sitka.
