This is the conclusion of the International Council for the Exploration of the Sea (ICES) in its latest review. For the past 30 years, the stock of herring in the central Baltic Sea has probably been below the level considered critical for a stock to survive in the long term.<br \/>Fishing pressure has also created an imbalance in the stock in the Gulf of Bothnia so that there is a lack of older and large fish, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dn.se\/sverige\/fisket-kan-oka-i-bottniska-viken-trots-akut-brist-pa-stora-strommingar\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">as DN has previously reported<\/a>. This impairs the herring&#8217;s important function in the Baltic Sea ecosystem. To restore the balance would require a sharp reduction in fishing for at least 10-15 years, <a href=\"https:\/\/ices-library.figshare.com\/articles\/report\/Workshop_on_establishing_a_roadmap_for_possible_sonservation_measures_for_herring_in_the_Baltic_WKHERBAL_\/25310959?file=45130267#:~:text=Figure%205.1%20Changes,horizontal%20lines%20showing\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">according to a recent working report from ICES<\/a>.<br \/>This year, however, there are signs of a slight increase in herring in the central Baltic Sea. At the same time, the authors of the report warn that the assessments are based on optimistic estimates of growth, and that the risk of the stock remaining at too low a level in the coming years is <a href=\"https:\/\/ices-library.figshare.com\/articles\/report\/Herring_i_Clupea_harengus_i_in_subdivisions_25_29_and_32_excluding_the_Gulf_of_Riga_central_Baltic_Sea_\/25019276?backTo=%2Fcollections%2FICES_Advice_2024%2F6976944&amp;file=46738738\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">55% &#8211; even with no fishing at all<\/a>.<br \/>Despite this, the European Commission recommends that the herring quota for the central Baltic Sea should increase by 108% next year.<br \/>ICES also warns that sprat has reproduced so poorly over the past three years that this stock is now also at risk of falling to such a low level that special conservation measures are needed. It is often caught together with herring and sprat and has long been considered very viable.<br \/>The final decision on fishing quotas will be taken in the EU Council of Ministers on October 22, where Sweden is represented by Minister for Rural Affairs Peter Kullgren (KD). At a meeting of the Riksdag Committee on Environment and Agriculture on Thursday, he presented the government&#8217;s proposed negotiating line in the EU.       <br \/>&#8211; The government&#8217;s starting point is that quotas should not increase, but rather decrease. Therefore, the result of this negotiation should be that we at least end up below the Commission&#8217;s proposal. That&#8217;s what we&#8217;re aiming for,&#8221; Peter Kullgren told DN.  <\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-308da21 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"308da21\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3>Determination and clearer requirements are called for<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-ff64651 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"ff64651\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Emma Nohr\u00e9n (MP), chair of the Environment and Agriculture Committee, believes that the government&#8217;s position has improved since last year.

This is emphasized by the Baltic Sea Centre&#8217;s policy analyst Charles Berkow, who participated in the latest Baltic Breakfast. Marine ecologist Agnes Karlsson emphasizes the importance of herring for the Baltic Sea ecosystem, and that a fishing ban is a grateful management measure.<br \/>Policy analyst Charles Berkow gets straight to the point in the opening of his presentation at the Baltic Breakfast: <br \/>&#8211; The management of fisheries in the Baltic Sea has failed. Stocks have been depleted. Too many risks have been taken, and the scientific evidence has been misinterpreted.<br \/>The decision-making process for commercial fishing in the Baltic Sea follows a fixed annual cycle: in May, the International Council for the Exploration of the Sea (ICES) presents its scientific evidence, in August the European Commission proposes quotas and other possible restrictions on next year&#8217;s fishing, and in October the Council of Ministers decides.<br \/>The scientific evidence from ICES is often presented as the scientists&#8217; recommendation to politicians on where to set quotas.<br \/>&#8211; But it is not recommendations. It is an answer to certain questions posed by the European Commission,&#8221; says Charles Berkow.     <\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c8b045c elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"c8b045c\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3>Comment from the Baltic Sea Treaty Foundation: Action is needed!<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a672e2d elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"a672e2d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>In addition to reducing fishing quotas, the main thing that needs to be done is to stop industrial fishing, which involves large-scale trawling for the production of fishmeal.
