East Coast fishery managers are due to decide next week whether to reduce industrial-scale Atlantic menhaden harvests in the Chesapeake Bay and along the coast. Menhaden are processed into fishmeal and fish oil, and concerns that declining availability is affecting ospreys and striped bass are intensifying debate over harvest levels.
A substantial harvest cut could reduce a source of fishmeal and fish oil, tightening supply and supporting prices. The price impact depends on the scale of any restrictions, which have not yet been decided.
