Many places stipulate that fishing is prohibited from 0: 00 on March 1 day to 24: 00 on June 30, 2023. Most prohibited operations are except recreational fishing. However, due to the different sea areas under the jurisdiction of different places, the fishing scope is also different, and the local official policy shall prevail.
The fishing moratorium in 2023 will be different in different areas of China. Take the South China Sea as an example, the fishing season is usually from June 1 to August 16, while for Bohai Bay and Yellow Sea, the fishing season is from May 1 to September 1. The implementation of the fishing moratorium is of great significance to the protection of fishery resources.
First of all, fishing moratorium can reduce fishing pressure and effectively protect and restore fishery resources. Secondly, fishing moratorium can also promote the reproduction and growth of aquatic organisms, improve the quantity and quality of the population, and thus better maintain the balance and stability of the ecosystem. At the same time, the fishing moratorium can also promote the sustainable development of fishery production, improve the income and living standards of fishermen and protect their interests.
After the fishing moratorium, the utilization and management of fishery resources still need to be paid attention to and strengthened. Therefore, it is necessary to formulate reasonable fishery management policies and measures, establish a scientific resource evaluation and monitoring mechanism, improve fishermen's management awareness and level, strengthen the innovative development of fishery science and technology, and better realize the sustainable development of fishery production and the long-term interests of fishermen.
