“…shown that while many of the richer countries have the capacity to identify and enforce fisheries-harvest regulations and to regulate location and gear used in bottom-trawl fisheries, many other countries lack these capacities. For example, the Asia-Pacific region provides a well-studied example that illustrates the challenges of open-access trawl fisheries with full-utilization markets that are managed for the 'triple bottom line', namely economic, environmental and societal goals (e.g., FAO, 2012FAO, , 2014Pho, 2007).…”

Choosing best practices for managing impacts of trawl fishing on seabed habitats and biota

Bottom trawling accounts for almost one quarter of global fish landings but may also have significant and unwanted impacts on seabed habitats and biota. Management measures and voluntary industry actions can reduce these impacts, helping to meet sustainability objectives for fisheries, conservation and environmental management. These include changes in gear design and operation of trawls, spatial controls, impact quotas and effort controls. We review nine different measures and actions and use published studies and a simple conceptual model to evaluate and compare their performance. The risks and benefits of these management measures depend on the extent to which the fishery is already achieving management objectives for target stocks and the characteristics of the management system that is already in place. We offer guidance on identifying best practices for trawl‐fisheries management and show that best practices and their likelihood of reducing trawling impacts depend on local, national and regional management objectives and priorities, societal values and resources for implementation. There is no universal best practice, and multiple management measures and industry actions are required to meet sustainability objectives and improve trade‐offs between food production and environmental protection.

“…Nearshore waters with characteristically sensitive habitats are particularly important; for example, 90% of the marine catch in Vietnam is taken at depths < 30 m (Pho, 2007). Under these circumstances, broadly applicable measures such as spatial controls have been the most widely supported (FAO, 2014).…”

“…These conditions, along with the intensification of capture fisheries within the lagoon, greatly altered the whole TGCH Lagoon system (Carbonetti, Pomeroy, & Richards, 2014). Small holders quickly became vulnerable to market forces due to a gradual increase in production costs, the onset of disease, and the unprofessional management of their activity (Kleih et al, 2013;Lan, 2013;Pho Hoang Han, 2007). There was therefore a "spontaneous" decline in aquaculture development by 2006.…”

“…Approximately, 72% of the total mechanized boats in the country are less than 45 hp, and 84% are less than 90 hp [3,5]. The majority of these boats operate in inshore areas up to 4-5 nm from the coast and in less than 50 m depth [3,10]. The inshore fleet is composed of approximately 28,000 non-mechanized canoes and boats and approximately 45,000 small mechanized boats powered with long tail or stationary 1-cylinder diesel engines up to approximately 20 hp.…”

“…As stated, the most common fishing grounds for Vietnamese fishermen are situated in shallow maritime areas (the area with 0-100 m of depth covers about 60% of the EEZ of Vietnam) [3,10]. These fishing grounds represent merely 11% of the EEZ.…”
