A meeting was held in Sonora, Mexico, to discuss the sustainable shrimp fishing practices needed for the 2023 export certification to the United States. The meeting was led by the state governor and the national commissioner of Aquaculture and Fisheries, with participation from the fishing industry leaders and the Ambassador of Mexico to the United States. The focus was on the proper use of Sea Turtle and Fish Excluder Devices during the current capture season, to prevent the loss of certification that would negatively impact job numbers and families dependent on the industry.
