Russia He has asked the expansion of the fish ban on the sturgeon of the Caspian Sea about the most important caviar -producing countries that corresponded to a moratorium on the ban on the aforementioned activity, According to the Russians, that is insufficient.
This fish, which produces the best caviar in the world, disappears at an alarming pace, the victim of excess fish and contamination of the Caspian Sea. Sturions are a unique and valuable resource, both from a biological and economic point of view. They are an important ecological component for the rivers and lakes that inhabit and extremely valuable through the caviar that produces. There is also a big demand for your meat.
In Western Europe, Sturions have disappeared practically, but they are being re -introduced, with the application of new aquaculture techniques. Since the disintegration of the Soviet Union, the poaching of this valuable species has achieved the utmost to end it in Eastern Europe and the regions of the Black and Caspian Sea.
Caspian sea door
The Russian Fisheries Staatsguardschap, Rosribolovstvo, He recently proposed to the Caspian countries to expand the commercial ban on sturgeon fish in that inland sea. «Our main task is to maintain the commercial ban on fishing sturgeon, The most valuable kind of the Caspian Sea, “said the director of the office, Iliatá Shestakov, during a congress in St. Petersburg, according to the Tass agency.
He also remembered that this ban was introduced by Caspian countries (Russia, Azerbaijan, Iran, Kazakhstan and Turkmenistan) in 2013 and was extended until the end of this year in December 2024. As Sisekov states, Many st like species were extinguished or about extinction according to the IUCN -Rode list Despite the established measures to try to restore the Ichthyofauna.
At the same time, they reported that the next campaign of the population control of the species present in the CAPOs will be performed according to a uniform method before August 2027. And in the same way Shestakov was in the same way Pronounced in favor of continuing with cooperation in the reproduction of captive stands and his subsequent release in The Caspian. “Pastive yacht takes place, but we have every opportunity to strengthen the fight against it,” says Shestakov, who regards him as one of his priorities.
The Caspian Sea Protection Agreement
With regard to climatic problems, in addition to the decrease in sea level, he said that “They cannot influence the climate “, but they can work in” restoring actual biorreciations “. In 2014, an agreement was signed between all Caspian countries for the preservation and rational use of the biological sources of the Caspian Sea, a document that was ratified in 2016 when it was put into operation.
At the moment, Sturion fishing in the Caspian Sea is only permitted for the purpose of scientific research or its reproduction. The Caspian Sea has the richest ecosystem in the number and diversity of sturgeon species. At the beginning of the twentieth century, because of their massive fishing, almost 40,000 tons are fishing a year, while in the late 1970s their catch still reached almost 30,000 tons.
Russia He forbade the industrial fishing of Beluga, considered the most valuable of the mouth, in the mouth of the river Volga in the Caspian Sea in 2000, and that of Sturgeon and Starry Sturgeon in 2005. The caviar that is sold on the national market is mainly part of fish farms, which benefit from the genetic reserve of the sturgeon Russian and are twenty sister species to raise those fish.
