Overfishing threatens marine reserve in Argentina 2 minutes read
By Veronica Dalto
Buenos Aires, Apr 1 (efe-epa).- Uncontrolled fishing by commercial fleets just outside Argentine territorial waters is harming the ecosystem even as some operators violate human rights through the use of virtual slave labor, Greenpeace says.
The problem is most acute off the coast of Patagonia on the edge of the Agujero Azul (Blue Hole) National Marine Reserve.
China accounts for 70 percent of the boats fishing in those waters, with another 20 percent coming from South Korea and Taiwan, while 10 percent of the boats are Spanish, according to Greenpeace.
International fishing fleets usually arrive in the waters near Argentina in November and remain through the end of March, though some foreign boats remain until June.
