End Of The Fishing Ban

The Port of Molfetta has several small boats moored at the pier in Molfetta, Italy, on September 30, 2025. Fishing boats from the Bari area, including Molfetta, Giovinazzo, Santo Spirito, Bari, Torre a Mare, Mola, and Monopoli, return to sea. The 45 consecutive days of mandatory stoppage for trawlers, as ordered by the Ministry of Agriculture and Food Sovereignty, have expired after a month and a half. However, fishing companies still face problems as they wait for the subsidy for the 2023 and 2024 stoppage. (Photo by Davide Pischettola/NurPhoto)
