Abstract

For fixing the timing and duration and achieving the objectives of SFB, we require right type of accurate scientific information. For example, if protecting the spawners is the prime objective of SFB, information on the spawning seasonality of important species are required as input and data on the improvement in spawning stock biomass (SSB) as the result of the SFB is needed. These data should be collected accurately by adopting rigorous and time-tested methods. Achieving the objectives of SFB is a good example of a strong science-policy nexus. If the scientists supply quality information by following suitable, reliable methodologies the SFB will deliver the intended outcomes.
