These three key elements constitute major challenges for fisheries, their management and fishery scientists whose goal is to provide objective advice. We demonstrate that limiting sustainable catch options may pose rigorous constraints on fishing activities, in particular on so-called mixed fisheries targeting more than one individual stock. In a situation where there are complex restrictions comprising multiple management goals which are sometimes conflicting (e.g. the ‘choke effects’ of reduced catch opportunities due to specific stock conservation needs or market conditions), we propose the application of specific measures for specific fisheries, i.e. deviation from traditional fishery selection patterns, as an option to avert significant losses in yield and economic revenue. Fisheries-specific contributions to general management goals, including unwanted effects, shall be evaluated. Individual fisheries may benefit accordingly through multi-annual management plans with regional-scale reconciliation of sustainable exploitation of living natural resources, food security and socio-economy as potential key elements Peer reviewed 2024-01-30T12:11:16Z 2024-01-30T12:11:16Z 2016-12 artículo Ocean and Coastal Management 134: 150-162 (2016) 0964-5691 http://hdl.handle.net/10261/344411 10.1016/j.ocecoaman.2016.10.005 en https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ocecoaman.2016.10.005 No none Elsevier
