Friend of the Sea announced certification of yellowfin tuna caught by handline method in the Maldives and processed in loins by Ocean Fresh Pvt Ltd.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The handline fishing method is becoming an important alternative to the pole and line fishing in Maldives, as bigger 30 kgs average yellowfin tuna has a higher market value than pole and line caught skipjack. The fishing season peaks from November to March and the same traditional pole and line vessels have now been equipped with cold storage and handlines. The fleet operates 200 to 300 km away from the coast, in the Indian Ocean waters.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

All vessels are registered and carry mandatory logbooks reporting discard of less than 1%, consisting mainly of skypjack tuna. Fishermen are instructed de-hook endangered species which might be accidentally caught. A ten-year ban on any form of shark fishing is implemented. The fishery management activities in the Maldives comprise licensing schemes, quotas and prohibitions, bans and levying royalties.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The Indian Ocean Tuna Commission’s Yellowfin Multifan-CL stock assessments published in November 2012 confirms that Biomass is above and fishing mortality is below Maximum Sustainable Yield, thus not overexploited. As a precautionary approach, the IOTC develops and monitors stock-specific reference points and indicators to ensure the sustainable utilization of fisheries resources.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Fish trimmings are collected in separate room and used for fish meal, while plastic waste is appropriately disposed. All workers are above 20 years old and paid in conformance with legal wages. The company provides the emergency transport to medical care at closest island and coverage of all work related medical expenses.<\/p>\n
