The author describes a decline in Atlantic menhaden in New England waters and warns that the fish’s ecological and economic importance makes that decline a serious concern. The article says other forage fish, including Atlantic herring and mackerel, are also less available, increasing pressure on menhaden to sustain coastal food webs.
If declining menhaden availability leads to tighter harvests, fishmeal supply could be reduced and prices supported. The article does not report a specific new catch restriction or quantify a supply change.
