Over one third of fish oil fish stocks 'poorly managed'

A new report from Sustainable Fisheries Partnership looked at 24 of the main 'reduction fisheries'  producing fish turned into fishmeal and fish oil.

The report showed that over one third (about 3.5 million tonnes of fish stock) were given the bottom C rating. The only 'reduction fishery' to be given an A rating was the Norwegian Aker BioMarine's krill fishery which is certified by Sustain member the Marine Stewardship Council.
