Cod for the fresh market can only be caught in this period. For this market the main fishing method is Danish seines. During the rest of the year, Atlantic cod is caught and frozen at sea. Here, bottom trawling and longline fishing is used. All methods are approved by MSC. SUSTAINABILITY CERTIFICATE The Marine Stewardship Council (MSC) is an international non-profit organisation that has developed a certification scheme for sustainable wild-catch fishing. The MSC standard consists of three core principles that each fishery must demonstrate it meets: sustainable fish stocks, minimising environmental impact and effective management.
