The state of a fish population is assessed according to two main criteria: fishing pressure, or the share of the population taken by fishing, and breeding biomass, meaning the quantity of adult fish of reproductive age. According to these criteria, it was established that, in 2021, 44 percent of the fish landings population was in good condition, while 12 percent of the fish landing population was overfished, and two percent was deemed as collapsed.
