Effect Analysis and Optimization of Fishing Moratorium in China

Abstract

Marine summer fishing moratorium is one of the most important fishery conservation policies in China at present, which is constantly adjusted and improved in practice. It plays an important role in improving the marine fishery ecology and promoting the sustainable development of fishery. In order to demonstrate the implementation effect of the policy, this paper first reviewed the history and characteristics of the change of the policy, and then took the East China Sea as an example to analyze the changes of fishing output, fishing effort and fishing efficiency in the East China Sea since the implementation of the policy, and discussed the changes of the output and quality of the representative catches. Based on the investigation of the catch of some fishing ports in the south of the East China Sea, this paper analyzed the existing problems of the current summer fishing moratorium, and then put forward some measures and suggestions for further optimization.
