The European Commission has set the total allowable catch for anchovy in the West Atlantic waters off Galicia and Portugal at 22,871 tonnes for the period from July 1, 2025, to June 30, 2026, based on scientific recommendations from the International Council for the Exploration of the Sea .
To ensure the availability of the quota throughout the campaign, weekly catch limits of 6,000 kilograms and 4,000 kilograms per vessel will be established, depending on vessel capacity and crew size. This measure was implemented at the request of the fishing sector itself.
