Fishery Policy: Statements.
However, I cannot understand how people who depend on the stock, whether they are drift, draught or anglers, can destroy it. There are examples in agriculture where people have exploited the land and found, to their cost, that one cannot do it indefinitely. That is why agricultural practices such as crop rotation and fallowing have developed. We are only at the beginning of learning those lessons both in the management of fish stocks and the intensive farming of salmon.
