marine fisheries

Marine fisheries involve the harvesting of fish and other seafood from the ocean and other saltwater bodies. They play a vital role in global food security and the economy, providing jobs and livelihoods for millions. Sustainable management of these fisheries is crucial to prevent overfishing, which depletes fish populations and harms marine ecosystems. This management includes regulations on catch limits, fishing seasons, and protected areas to ensure that fish stocks remain healthy for future generations while supporting local communities and preserving marine biodiversity.
