Other Media | SeafoodSource: UK seafood industry waiting on a bounce back after Covid, Brexit losses

UNITED KINGDOM
Wednesday, October 23, 2024

Four years on from the Covid-19 pandemic and Brexit, the U.K. seafood industry is still roughly GBP 1 billion (USD 1.3 billion, EUR 1.2 billion) behind where it was in 2019. 

Prior to the U.K. officially leaving the European Union in early 2020, government officials promised seafood sector growth would continue to be supported. Despite the promises, multiple aspects of the industry are struggling, with some calling on the government for additional help as challenges continue to undermine the segment.

IN BRIEF - Launch of the photobook 'Women of the Sea in Aysén'

CHILE
Wednesday, October 23, 2024

The launch of the digital photobook Women of the Sea, Coast and Islands of the Aysén Region was held in the Aysén Region, with the presence of local and regional authorities, as well as female fishermen.
 
This book portrays the stories of women who have made fishing their vocation and source of livelihood. During the event, tribute was paid to the protagonists of the photographs.
 
Gonzalo Pereira, Director of the Fisheries Development Institute, highlighted the importance of fishing as an ancient trade and highlighted the essential role of women in keeping these traditions alive. The photobook is a tribute to their courage and dedication, capturing not only their work, but also the essence of those who defy the adverse conditions of the sea to support their families.
 
The author of the book, Dr. Alejandra Lafon, a marine biologist and photographer, commented that the work seeks to make visible the female participation in artisanal fishing, from Melinka to Caleta Tortel. Dedicated to all the women of the sea, the book arose from her desire to show the strong link of these women with the ocean and their daily work. "This book was created spontaneously, rooted in my contact with the fishing activity and desire to make visible their feminine side, to show their work and strong link with the sea," said its author.

Other Media | Industrias Pesqueras: The Spanish fleet closed 2022 in the black despite the historic blow to the entire European sector

SPAIN
Tuesday, October 22, 2024

The Spanish fishing fleet dodged the blow of the increase in operating costs in 2022, a year in which the entire European sector hit rock bottom in terms of profitability. The annual update of the “Annual Economic Report on the European Union fishing fleet”, published by the EU's STECF (Scientific, Technical and Economic Committee for Fisheries), which has just been released and reflects the data for that year, indicates that in 2022 the national fleet improved its economic performance in all indicators. The value of catches reached 2,090 million euros, which implies an increase of 7%, despite the fact that the volume in live weight of production fell by 0.8%.

IN BRIEF - Coastal trawler detected a large presence of shrimp and generates expectations for the season

ARGENTINA
Tuesday, October 22, 2024

In the city of Rawson, expectations are high after the recent sighting of a significant concentration of shrimp just 45 minutes from the local port.
 
A boat that recently arrived confirmed the presence of these valuable crustaceans, fueling hopes that the local fishing industry could be facing one of its best seasons in years, according to El Chubut.
 
 
 
However, despite the encouraging outlook at sea, obstacles still persist on land. The fishing community awaits the resolution of the negotiations between businessmen and the United Maritime Workers Union (SOMU), a key agreement to begin both the prospecting and the fishing season.
 
The next few weeks will be crucial, as the success of the negotiations will not only define the future of this season, but could also mark a milestone for the local fishing industry if the necessary consensus is reached.
