AWARD RECOGNISES
SKIPPER WINNER OF THE 2012 Magazine Publishers Journalist of the Year award in Trade Professional category, was Skipper Magazine's own Keith Ingram.
The judges comments included praise for his "Interesting choice of subject matter." They also noted that he was, "An industry stalwart whose depth of knowledge and intel about his subjects makes compelling reading." Regular readers of Keith's would probably say he's a whole lot more than that. He's a courageous journo, unafraid of tackling the tough issues, or of taking on the big boys, and humble enough to talk to the every- day mariners and people who serve the marine industry. Congratulations Keith, Journalist of the Year – well deserved!

sustainability of NZ fisheries THE FOOD AND Agriculture Organisation report released this week acknowledges New Zealand's sustainable approach to fisheries management.
The report stated that good progress had been made in reducing exploitation rates and restoring overexploited fish stocks through effective management actions in some areas. The FAO points to New Zealand, where 69 percent of our stocks are above targeted sustainable yields and the remaining 31 percent are under management plans and heading in the right direction. Detail from the FAO report:
• Capture fisheries and aquaculture supplied the world with about 148 million tonnes of fish in 2010, of which about 128 million tonnes of fish were utilised as food for humans.
• Preliminary data for 2011 indicate increased production of 154 million tonnes, of which 131 million were destined for food.
• Today fish provides more than 4.3 billion people with about 15 percent of their intake of animal protein.
• Estimates for 2011 point to fish consumption reaching a record new high of 18.8kg per person.
• In 2010 wild fisheries capture fell to 88.6 million tonnes. However, in 2011 wild capture is forecast to increase to its highest level in six years, around 90.4 million tonnes.
• Aquaculture production reached grew 7.5 percent in 2010, reaching 59.9 million tonnes, and is expected to grow to 63.6 million tonnes in 2011.
• Stimulated by higher demand for fish, world fisheries and aquaculture production is projected to reach about 172 million tonnes in 2021.
• Overall, the sector supports the livelihoods of 10-12 percent of the world's population.
