Fishing In Puglia

Fishermen on small boats are cleaning their nets after trawling in the Port of Molfetta, on December 1, 2023. Nearly 500 fishing vessels are being sunk by new European regulations that call for the elimination of bottom trawling, the most productive sector of the fishing industry, with a devastating impact on the economy, employment, and consumption.
