Bio Assess
 

Assessment year: 2021
The CECAF Working Groups have adopted the following Biological Reference Points (BRPs):
- Limit Reference points: BMSY and FMSY
- Target Reference Points: B0.1 and F0.1
Stock status is assigned based on current estimates of fishing mortality (Fcur) and biomass (Bcur) relative to these target and limit reference points (Bcur/BMSY, Fcur/FMSY, Bcur/B0.1, Fcur/F0.1). The results from the stock assessment of this stock are found under the “Biological state and trend section”.
Results

No fit of the model.
Sci Advice

The fishing effort should not exceed the 2021 effort, or the catch should not exceed the average of the last 5 years (2 100 tonnes).
