Russia shrimp ban worsens as over half of Canadian, Greenlandic volumes now shut off

July 8, 2014 Canada, International News

A leading coldwater shrimp importer warned Russia is heading towards a shortage of small shrimp as the country’s import bans on Canadian and Greenlandic shrimp trawlers continue to worsen.

NILS STOLPE: The New England groundfish debacle (Part IV): Is cutting back harvest really the answer?

While it’s a fact that’s hardly ever acknowledged, the assumption in fisheries management is that if the population of a stock of fish isn’t at some arbitrary level, it’s because of too much fishing.
