The protocol establishes, among other measures, a maximum of three catches and transfers per day, the immediate transfer of captured tuna to transport pools, and the limitation of catches involving excessively large schools. These measures help us improve the eco-efficiency of our fleet, reduce environmental impact, and ensure more responsible management of the species.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"848\" data-end=\"1168\" data-is-last-node=\"\" data-is-only-node=\"\">As usual, the campaign will be supervised by thirteen independent observers from the International<strong> Commission for the Conservation of Atlantic Tunas (ICCAT)<\/strong>.
