Ecuador is renowned for its sustainable fisheries management, especially in the pelagic sector. With a new 2- week pelagic fishing ban starting on August 22nd, seafood buyers need to understand the impact and how to secure their supplies effectively.
Why Ecuador Implements Fishing Bans
Ecuador’s fishing bans are crucial for protecting and sustaining fish populations. Typically, these bans occur twice a year, allowing fish stocks to recover and ensuring long-term sustainability.
Key Factors Considered:
- Fish Population Health: Regular assessments determine if stocks need time to recover.
- Spawning Seasons: Bans are often aligned with spawning periods to protect breeding fish.
- Environmental Conditions: Ocean conditions are monitored to assess the need for bans.
- Scientific Research: Decisions are based on the latest data and research to ensure effective management.
Understanding the Upcoming 40-Day Ban
Starting August 19th, Ecuador will enforce a 40-day ban on pelagic fishing. This ban will directly impact the availability of key species like Bullet Tuna and Pacific Moonfish. To avoid shortages, securing your stock now is essential.
