“Our message is, don’t buy, don’t sell, don’t carry any form of shellfish and little shrimps from those locations,” he stated in Filipino. “This includes mussels, oysters, and even tiny shrimp from the aforementioned waterways.

But Briguera pointed out that the locals could still consume round scads, squid, shrimp, and crabs.

In the meantime, the BFAR reassured the public that it will continue to increase production in order to guarantee a plentiful supply of fish and achieve fish sufficiency in the Philippines.

According to Briguera, larger boats are being given to local fishermen to assist them increase their catch.

In light of the impending food crisis, Briguera advised young students to use their scholarships to contribute to the country’s drive for sustainable food production.
