Inalis na ang Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources (BFAR) ang tatlong buwang closed fishing season sa round scad o galunggong sa northeastern Palawan noong January 31, 2021.

“Since 2015, the implementation of closed fishing season in Palawan has continually yielded significant positive results in the production of galunggong in the area,” ayon sa ahensya.

Base sa ulat ng National Stock Assessment Program ng Region IVB, tumaas ang nakukuhang galunggong sa pamamagitan ng purse seine sa 653.66 MT sa taong 2019.

Mula naman sa 170.97 MT, tumaas ang nahuhuling galunggong sa pamamagitan ng ringnet sa 285.32 MT sa kaparehong taon.

Ani DA-BFAR National Director Eduardo Gongona, welcome development sa ahensya ang unti-unting pagdami ng nakukuhang galunggong sa nasabing lugar.

“This simply reinforces our firm decision to continue the implementation of the annual closed fishing season in the country’s major fishing grounds, which includes the galunggong-rich Palawan and integrate it in our holistic measures to fisheries management as part of the ‘One DA’ approach, which is anchored on the whole of government approach by President Rodrigo Duterte’s administration,” ani Gongona.
