Sustainable Seafood Day: 16th March 2012
The Marine Stewardship Council (MSC) has announced the launch of Sustainable Seafood Day in Australia. Set for March 16, it seeks to boost the profile of those products that bear the MSC’s ecolable – a tick of approval for sustainable and well managed fisheries.
Austral Fisheries already has one MSC certified product, Heard Island & McDonald Islands (HIMI) Mackerel Icefish, and currently has three other fisheries undergoing assessment – the HIMI Patagonian Toothfish Fishery, the Macquarie Island Patagonian Toothfish Fishery, and Australia’s Northern Prawn Fishery.
