The fishing quota for the Black Sea turbot has been raised to 32%
For sprat, the catch limit of 11,475 tonnes will be maintained, of which 70% is allocated to Bulgaria and 30% to Romania.
The Agriculture and Fisheries Council (AGRIFISH) has adopted a series of regulations that limit catches for certain fish stocks in the Black Sea affecting Bulgaria and Romania. The Council's decisions will be applied starting with 1 January 2018.
