Tridge summary

Fishermen in Giresun, Turkey, have had a disappointing fishing season due to a decrease in fish catches and high prices, coupled with an unefficient sea fishing ban. The ban, intended to conserve anchovies, was implemented too late, leading to a depletion of the species and higher prices.
