## Section 2 International developments surrounding Japan's fisheries

## (1) Bilateral fishery relations

Japan conducts its fishing operations in waters of South Korea and China, and vice versa, under its bilateral fishery agreement with the two countries.

Japan conducts its fishing operations based on three intergovernmental agreements:

(1) Agreement between the Government of Japan and the Government of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics Concerning the Mutual Rerations in the Field of Fisheries off the Coasts of the Two Countries

(2) Agreement between the Government of Japan and the Government of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics on Cooperation in Fishery

(3) Agreement between the Government of Japan and the Government of the Russian Federation on some matters of cooperation in the field of fishing operations for marine living resources

○ Japanese fishing vessels operate in the 200-mile zones of Pacific island countries and African countries under bilateral government-to-government or private-level agreements.

## (2) Crackdown on foreign fishing vessels in illegal operations

Japan monitors and cracks down on foreign fishing vessels' illegal operations in its exclusive economic zone and territorial waters. In 2006, the Fisheries Agency seized 10 foreign fishing vessels, conducted boarding inspections on 128 vessels and confiscated fishing gear from 35 vessels. Recently, foreign fishing vessels' malicious actions have stood out. Some foreign fishing vessels have rejected boarding inspections and fled from Japanese patrol boats. Japan has thus been enhancing its monitoring and crackdown activities.

## Russia's seizure of Japanese fishing vessel in waters off Nemuro

In August 2006, the Russian border guard authorities shot fire on and seized a Japanese crabbing boat in waters near Kaigara Island, killing one crewman. The Japanese government filed a strong protest against the attack and seizure with the Russian government and demanded Russia's early release of other crewmen and the vessel. The body of the crewman killed in the incident was delivered to Japan and the other crewmen were released. Japan asked Russia to prevent such an incident from occurring again and enhanced the guidance for Japanese fishery workers in efforts to secure safe operations of Japanese fishing vessels and maintain the fishing order.
## (3) Multilateral fishery relations

A. Developments regarding bonito and tuna fisheries

Japan acceded to the Western and Central Pacific Fisheries Commission (WCPFC) in July 2005, becoming the world's first country to join all regional tuna fishing management organizations.

In order to counter IUU (illegal, unreported and unregulated) fishing activities and operations by countries other than parties to tuna fishing regulation conventions, Japan, through regional tuna fishing management organizations, has taken such measures as a ban on imports of tuna other than those produced through justifiable procedures.

In January 2007, Japan hosted the first ever joint meeting of the five regional tuna fishing management organizations in Kobe (see Topic 2).

### B. Other International Organizations

In November 2006, the United Nations adopted a sustainable fishing resolution urging the U.N. members to urgently address the problem of dragnet and other fishing methods' adverse effects on deep-water ecosystems in high seas.

At its 58th annual meeting, the International Whaling Commission adopted the St. Kitts and Nevis Declaration calling for normalization of the dysfunctional IWC (see Topic 4).

## (4) Current situation of international fisheries cooperation

Japan implements grant aid for fisheries and technical cooperation with other countries through the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA).

The Overseas Fishery Cooperation Foundation transfers technologies and know-how to fishery operations of coastal countries.

Japan provides support to the Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center (SEAFDEC).
Section 3 Fishery business management

(1) Trends of fishery operators

In 2005, the number of operators of sea-water fisheries and aquaculture declined by 4% from the previous year to 125,000. Of these, 95% are family-based coastal fishery operators.

## (2) State of fishery business management

In 2005, fishery income per coastal fishery household (coastal fishery households with fishing vessels, marine aquaculture households, and households with small scale stationary nets) leveled off from the previous year to 2.8 million yen. Fishery household income including non-fishery income was 5.84 million yen, down 3.9% from the previous year.

Changes in Fishery Household Income

2003	2004	2005
Fishery household income	610	608	584
Fishery income	271	282	280
Dependence on fishery income (\%)	44.4	46.4	47.9

Note. Coastal fishery households mean family-based fishery operators using 10-ton or smaller fishing vessels.

##

Fishmeal prices have risen globally as the supply-demand relationship for fishmeal for aquaculture has tightened on development of aquaculture mainly in China. The price hike is not viewed as a temporary phenomenon. It is important for Japan to develop diffuse new aquaculture feed replacing fishmeal.

Small and medium-sized fishery operators continued to suffer losses on fishery operations in FY2005. They offset these losses with non-fishery and non-operating profits.

On deterioration of their business performance in recent years, they have tried to reduce labor costs and capital spending on fishing vessels and gear. They have also scaled down their production operations. In FY2005, they reduced fishery spending and income by more than 30% from FY1989. On the other hand, their fuel costs soared on price hikes. They are required to introduce and diffuse energy conservation technologies and shift to a profit-first approach.

They still depend on borrowings for most of their capital spending. They have even had short-term cash flow problems.

## (3) State of fishery workers

In 2005, the number of fishery workers declined by 4% from the previous year to 222,000. These workers aged further. Those aged above 64 accounted for 35.7% of fishery workers, up 1.2 percentage points from the previous year. It is necessary to recruit and train new fishery workers.

Changes in Number of Fishery Workers

Sources: "Annual Statistics on Fishery Industry" (until 2001), "Annual Statistics on Fishery Workers" (2002), "Fishery Census" (2003), and "Survey Report on Fishery Workers" (from 2004), Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries.

In 2005, the number of Japanese workers employed for offshore and far-sea fishing declined by 27% from five years ago to 25,000.

The number of fishing vessels involved in marine accidents in 2006 stood at 892, up 83 from the previous year.

## (4) Fisheries cooperatives

At the end of FY2005, Japan had 2,377 fisheries cooperatives, including 1,349 for coastal districts, 874 for inland water districts and 154 sector-specific cooperatives.

Reflecting the recent deterioration in the environment surrounding the fisheries industry, fisheries cooperatives' operations leveled off or declined. Three-quarters of fisheries cooperatives posted operating losses.

Efforts are being made to merge fisheries cooperatives in order to enhance their organization and business infrastructure. In FY2005, a record 149 fisheries cooperatives took part in mergers. Seven prefectures unified fisheries cooperatives. Considerable efforts are required to achieve the target of about 250 fisheries cooperatives nationwide by the end of FY2007.

The fishery mutual aid system's coverage of fishery workers has been rising in terms of production value, but it is still limited to 50%.
Section 4 Development of safe, vigorous fishing villages and demonstration of fishing villages' multiple functions

(1) Improvement of living environment and enhancement of anti-disaster capacity for fishing villages

A total of 6,291 fishing villages (as of 2003) exist in Japan's coastal regions. They have lagged behind urban regions in infrastructure development. National and local governments have been cooperating with relevant organizations in developing sewage facilities and other infrastructure systems in fishing villages.

Fishing villages behind fishing ports could be isolated when earthquakes are accompanied by tsunami tidal waves. Anti-drift facilities against tsunami at fishing ports, quake-proof piers, and evacuation routes and shelters for fishing villages are being developed. In March 2006, the Government produced a guideline compiling disaster management and prevention ideas for fishing regions.

## (2) Exploitation of local resources for invigoration of fishing villages

Measures are implemented to exploit local resources of fishing villages for providing children with opportunities for learning through fishing experiences to help invigorate these villages.

The Government selects "the Rural Areas Revitalizing" as forerunning cases for development of autonomous farming, forestry or fishing villages backed by efficient business management.

Female fishery workers play key roles in invigorating local communities by processing and selling unexploited resources and by providing goods for morning markets.

## A selected case for "the Rural Areas Revitalizing"

"Ajishima Adventure School" on Aji Island, Miyagi Prefecture

"Old children" (elderly residents on the island) as teachers and "future adults" (children coming from outside the island) experience old summer holidays. A variety of activities include sea kayaking, craftwork using driftwood, and fishing.

"Anagonuki" (the island's unique method for catching sea eel)
(3) Multiple functions of fisheries industry and fishing villages

The fisheries industry and fishing villages have multiple functions in addition to their primary function to supply fishery products. These functions include conservation of natural environments, protection of people's lives and properties, provision of places for people to live and exchange, and formation and preservation of local communities.

Fishery workers and volunteers engage in activities to conserve declining underwater plant beds and tidelands.

Fisheries are a key industry on isolated islands. These islands are disadvantaged in transportation. The decline of fishery workers and their aging on these islands are faster than on the mainland. Efforts are going on to exploit the isolated-island fisheries revitalization subsidies to add value to fishery products.

## (4) Pursuing invigoration of local fisheries

## O Efforts are going on to develop new products and promote efficient fishery business management

Sugiyo has developed the "kani fumi kamaboko" steam fish paste that looks and tastes like crab leg muscles. By selling the product worldwide, the firm has contributed to invigorating the fishery processing industry.

The cooperative produces the "ikijime B1 bonito" by bleeding bonito one by one immediately after catching. The cooperative integrally covers catching, processing and sales.
