Marine fisheries management

Marine fisheries management involves regulating and overseeing fishing activities to ensure that fish populations remain healthy and sustainable over time. It includes setting catch limits, protecting critical habitats, monitoring stock health, and implementing conservation measures. The goal is to balance the economic benefits of fishing with the need to preserve marine ecosystems, preventing overfishing and ensuring that future generations can enjoy the same resources. Effective management relies on scientific data, international cooperation, and adaptive policies to respond to changing ocean conditions and species populations.
