Description

The Netherlands is building ever more wind farms in the North Sea, even in locations that were formerly designated as fishing areas. As a result, the area available to fishers is continuously shrinking. Wageningen University & Research is investigating potential opportunities for fishing activities between the windmills using hand lines or gill nets.
