This new collaboration between fishers and scientists not only provides high quality data on herring, mackerel and blue whiting stocks, but also builds understanding and trust between science and industry.
Produced by The Fishmongers’ Company, the video includes contributions from programme partners the Scottish Pelagic Fishermen’s Association, University of Highlands & Islands - Shetland, and the Marine Directorate of the Scottish Government, as well as from fishermen.
High-quality data
This is the first in a series of videos promoting good practice in the UK fishing industry. These videos and case studies will be hosted on Fishing into the Future’s Porthole website
The Fishing Porthole is a dedicated portal, spearheaded by the fishing industry, aimed at improving understanding and collaboration in fisheries management and science.
