Researchers at the University of Santiago de Compostela, Spain look at what is necessary for the Common Fisheries reform, with a particular focus on sustainability.
With an annual value of about 7.3 million saithe(Pollachius virens) is, by weight, the seccond mostabundant demersal species landed by the Scottishfleet.
With an annual value of around 8.5 million whiting (Merlangius merlangus) has always been important in the landings of demersal fish from the North Sea.
Long-lining has several advantages over trawling, according to researchers at Nofima and stfoldforskning. The project Fra bunn til munn (From Seabed to Mouth) has been looking at the entire value chain of line-caught white fish.
