Iceland must keep innovating, insists fisheries minister
Innovation has been central to the success of Iceland’s fisheries and seafood sectors and is an increasingly important factor behind the value that they are creating. But this progress must be further harnessed, particularly in the development of environmentally-friendly fishing practices and reducing plastic pollution in the world’s oceans, according to the country’s Minister of Food, Fisheries and Agriculture Bjarkey Olsen Gunnarsdóttir.
