    From SeafoodNews on June 22, Japan plans to propose an expansion of Pacific bluefin tuna fishing quotas at an international conference to be held in late July
    .
     
    The number of reproductive adult bluefin tuna is recovering, paving the way for increasing fishing quotas
    .
    However, this proposal is expected to arouse opposition from the United States seeking to protect fish resources
    .
     
    At a meeting held by the Fisheries Agency of Japan on Friday, many fishery operators called for an increase in bluefin tuna fishing quotas
    .
    The Fisheries Department will finalize the details of the proposal, such as expanding the specific scale of fishing quotas
    .

     
    The proposal will be presented at the online meeting of the Northern Committee of the Western and Central Pacific Fisheries Commission, which will discuss the resource management of bluefin tuna
    .
     
    Since 2015, the number of bluefin tuna has fallen sharply due to overfishing, and has been receiving international attention and actual management
    .
     
    In 2018, stocks of adult bluefin tuna nearly tripled from the record low in 2010, reaching about 28,000 tons
    .
     
    Japan called for an increase in fishing volume last year, but due to the opposition of the United States failed to reach an agreement, the United States claimed that the fishing volume is still very low
