Pacific Fisheries Policy: The Pacific Islands Forum Fisheries Agency (FFA) released its 2024–2025 Annual Report, saying all four key tuna stocks (skipjack, yellowfin, bigeye, albacore) remain healthy as members adopt new reference points and push down illegal fishing losses while preparing a new five-year plan.

Water Stress Hits Fish: British Columbia issued an order covering 456 water licenses in the Salmon River watershed to protect endangered chinook salmon, temporarily restricting irrigation and some industrial water use amid severe drought. Industry Profit Signal: Malaysia’s Nekmat reported RM25m-plus profit in 2025 (up from RM11m in 2024), pointing to stronger management and plans for new fisherman-association projects. Trade Pressure on Seafood: New U.S. tariffs on most Canadian goods exclude fish, but border communities like Point Roberts still face uncertainty as cross-border commerce and tourism could be hit. Marine Fish Breeding Push: A U.S.-funded aquarium-research network says it has developed methods to breed 20+ marine fish species in human care, aiming to cut reliance on wild-caught fish.
