Riassunto : The EU fisheries and aquaculture products (FAPs) market is largely dependent on external producers. Some of the imports entering the EU market come from countries with lenient regulations. This study gives an overview on existing competitiveness indicators. It shows main trends in the EU’s FAPs supply through extra-EU imports and identifies the main internal and external factors affecting the sector’s competitiveness. The research presents four case studies and an assessment of options for adaptations to the internal and external policy framework. Finally, it provides a series of recommendations for strengthening the competitiveness of the EU fisheries and aquaculture sector in the future.

Riassunto : This At a glance note summarises the third study in a series of three research papers, prepared for a PECH Committee Workshop. The study explores how initiatives within the European Green Deal may impact food security in fisheries and aquaculture. The Farm to Fork Strategy’s aim of sustainable food production indicates prioritising low trophic species like bivalves and algae. ‘Fit for 55’requires greater fuel efficiency and a transition to clean energy by the fishing fleet. A net positive long-term impact on food security is expected from sustainable production. As two thirds of the EU’s seafood consumption is imported, such ambitions should be extended to non-EU country producers.

Riassunto : Il presente studio espone i dati scientifici attuali, le lacune in termini di conoscenze e il quadro normativo vigente relativamente al benessere delle principali specie di pesci di allevamento nell'UE. Offre inoltre ai deputati al Parlamento europeo priorità e raccomandazioni di intervento in materia di benessere pertinenti per il processo decisionale dell'UE. Il benessere dei pesci è una componente importante della piscicoltura sostenibile e negli ultimi anni è diventato oggetto di notevole interesse. Stando all'opinione dominante all'interno della comunità scientifica, il benessere è strettamente legato all'assenza di stress e malattie. Lo stress è un meccanismo di adattamento fondamentale che è parte integrante del patrimonio genetico e il cui scopo è quello di garantire la sopravvivenza e altre funzioni biologiche cruciali. È pertanto essenziale determinare il punto esatto a partire dal quale, in relazione alla specie, allo stadio della vita e al sistema di allevamento, lo stress inizia a compromettere il benessere dei pesci. Broom afferma inoltre che un cattivo stato di salute incide sul benessere dell'animale, mentre uno stato di malessere non è necessariamente indice di cattiva salute.1 Pertanto, le interconnessioni tra stress, resistenza alle malattie e benessere dei pesci d'allevamento dovrebbero essere ulteriormente studiate.

Riassunto : This study examines the EU Algae Initiative of the European Commission and gives an overview of the European algae sector in terms of production, applications, opportunities and barriers. The 23 targeted actions proposed by the Commission have been set out with the goal of unlocking the vast potential of algae for the EU’s Blue Bioeconomy, addressing key challenges, such as food security and climate change mitigation. For successfully developing the sector, a set of barriers will need to be overcome. This requires a collective effort by policymakers, at Member State and EU level, as well as industry stakeholders, scientific community, administration and others.

Riassunto : This At a glance note summarises the study reviewing China’s mariculture and marine fisheries with emphasis on the operations of its Distant Water Fleets (DWF). China’s DWF are analysed with some emphasis on the subsidies they receive from their government, their Illegal, Unreported and Unregulated catches and practices, the challenges they represent to international agreements, and to competing fleets from the EU, particularly in six focal countries, i.e., Mauritania, Senegal, Madagascar, Mauritius, Ecuador and the Solomon Islands. Finally, the trade of Chinese fishery and mariculture products is reviewed with some emphasis on the import of fish feed by China, which may increasingly impact some food-deficient countries.

Riassunto : This document is a compilation of briefings that track the commitments made by the Vice-Presidents and Commissioners to the European Parliament – in their written answers to Parliament’s questions, at their hearings, and, in some cases, in subsequent appearances before Parliament’s committees. The document provides an overview of the state-of-play at the mid-term of the von der Leyen Commission. Since many of these commitments were made, major international crises have shifted some political priorities. The Vice-Presidents’ and Commissioners’ progress on their commitments should be considered in this context.

Riassunto : This briefing follows up the commitments made by the commissioner in 2019.

Riassunto : This At a glance note sumarises the study evaluating the costs and benefits on fisheries and aquaculture of three types of spatial protection measures: (i) Fish Stock Recovery Areas (FSRAs), (ii) Marine Protected Areas (MPAs), and areas designated as (iii) Other Effective area-based Conservation Measures (OECMs). The research assesses how far fisheries co-management approaches can potentially help to achieve the European Union targets. The study uses three case studies from France, Spain and Greece to collect data on the different types of spatial protection measures and assesses how the cost-benefit analysis framework can be applied for their evaluation

Riassunto : This At-a-glance note is the second in a series of three, prepared for a PECH Committee Workshop. It provides a global overview of the latest developments, as well as potential benefits and risks of Electronic Monitoring (EM). Worldwide experiences with EM are discussed in light of the European context. During the period 2008 to 2019, altogether 26 EM trials were conducted within the EU. Despite promising results, none of the trials evolved into a fully integrated EM programme. Still, lessons learnt from these trials are valuable and show potential for implementing EM on larger scale in the EU.

Riassunto : This At-a-glance note is the third in a series of three, prepared for a PECH Committee Workshop. It examines and presents possibilities of electronic technologies (ET) that can be used to report, document and monitor fishery activities of the small-scale vessel fleet. The national fishing fleets in the EU are large where most of the vessels are less than 12 metres in length. The information on this fleet segment’s fishing activities is limited and insufficient for documentation of the fleet’s impact on the environment and for fisheries management and governance in general. The present research contains four case studies with current usages of such technologies developed for small-scale vessels.

Riassunto : La pesca e l'acquacoltura sono stati tra i settori alimentari che hanno risentito in modo più immediato dell'impatto del COVID-19. Inizialmente, la maggior parte dei paesi ha cercato di garantire la salute e la sicurezza, chiudendo i porti, mettendo in quarantena le navi straniere, sospendendo i mercati del pesce all'aperto, sanificando i porti e i pescherecci, fornendo mascherine ai lavoratori e sensibilizzando in merito alle misure sanitarie.

Riassunto : The marketing standards for fishery and aquaculture products are covered by the Common Market Organisation (CMO) Regulation (regulation 1379/2013), one of the pillars of EU’s Common Fisheries Policy (CFP). The marketing standards for FAPs have remained unchanged for more than 20 years and in 2018 they were submitted to an evaluation process by the European Commission. The expected outcome is the release of a new legislative proposal by the first half of 2021, in line with the European Commission's Farm to Fork strategy.
