EODE
Experimentation of the Duty to Land
Context
The Common Fisheries Policy (CFP) has introduced a generalized landing obligation on the first of January 2019. With a view to sustainable resource management, it aims at putting an end to the practice of discarding unwanted catches of fish at sea.
Objective
Assessing possible strategies and technical solutions to adapt to the landing obligation.
About the <strong>project </strong>
The project aims at setting up a pilot experiment under Landing Obligation conditions in order to assess the impact of this on the upstream and downstream of the sector and to seek solutions to limit the loss of turnover and the ensuing socio-economic consequences. The project focuses in particular on issues relating to on-board and at-land management of unwanted catches: recording, control, sorting, storage, landing, transport, processing, etc.
