The Sustainable Fisheries Partnership (SFP) once again awarded the krill fishery in the Antarctic an “A” rating for its well-managed fishery in its yearly Reduction Fisheries Sustainability Overview.
It is the fourth year in a row the fishery has received the rating.
The independent report states that of the stocks listed in “very good condition,” (or Category A status), the Antarctic krill fishery in the Atlantic Southern Ocean is once again singled out as being particularly well-managed by the Commission for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources (CCAMLR).
