“Most of the fish caught are juveniles which have not yet had a chance to reproduce and the population is estimated to have declined by 19 to 33% over the past 22 years.” “The species is extensively targeted by the fishing industry for the sushi and sashimi markets predominantly in Asia,” the IUCN said when it issued its announcement.

That is the value to fishermen plus all the middlemen in the global marketplace.Īt the same time, the population of Pacific Bluefin tuna is heavily overfished, which is what led the IUCN to declare the species “vulnerable” and threatened with extinction in November 2014. Photo: Nancy BazilchukĪ May 2016 report by the US-based Pew Charitable Trusts estimated that the wild catch of Pacific Bluefin tuna generates more than US$1 billion in end value. Indeed, one sushi restaurant chain owner paid a record US$1.8 million for a 222 kg Bluefin tuna during the first of-the-year fish auction at Tsukiji in 2013.īluefin tuna have retractable fins, which are blue, giving them their name. Bluefin tuna at auction at the gigantic Tsukiji Fish Market in Tokyo can be sold for hundreds of thousands of US dollars per fish. It’s hard to overestimate the popularity of Bluefin tuna for the Japanese people. It also offers an opportunity for Norwegian researchers, with their deep experience in aquaculture and the production of specialized fish food, to expand their expertise to work with this most prized of fish. The process is called full-cycle aquaculture, and it offers a small ray of hope to sashimi lovers and Pacific Bluefin tuna populations alike. While that’s only a fraction of the roughly 40,000 tons of Bluefin tuna consumed in Japan every year, it’s a start. Now, they produce about 80 tons of Bluefin tuna a year. Since 2002, researchers at Kindai University have raised Pacific Bluefin tuna completely in captivity, the first group in the world to do so. They are the offspring of farm-hatched fish, raised from eggs until they are adults. Nevertheless, it is common in Australia and in the Mediterranean, and in parts of Japan.īut the fish in this pen are different. This does virtually nothing to reduce the pressure on wild populations since the juvenile fish are caught in the wild and raised in pens. Most Bluefin tuna aquaculture involves raising juvenile fish in captivity. Wild Bluefin tuna stocks are heavily overfished and listed as a threatened species by the IUCN, the International Union for the Conservation of Nature.
