How did the negotiations unfold, and what were the main points of contention between member states and the European Commission?

Negotiations were particularly challenging, with Spain, France, and Italy initially opposing the European Commission's proposed 79% reduction in fishing days. The final agreement resulted in a smaller reduction (66% in Spanish and French waters, 38% in Italian and French waters) coupled with a compensation mechanism based on implementing conservation measures like improved mesh size and seasonal closures. This approach aims to balance conservation efforts with the economic needs of fishing communities.

What are the immediate economic and social consequences of the shellfish harvest failures in Southern Europe, and how do these impact vulnerable communities?

Rising sea temperatures and pollution have devastated mussel harvests in Taranto, Italy, leaving 400 farmers with total losses. In Galicia, Spain, 95% of cockles and 75% of clams were killed, impacting shellfish pickers' livelihoods. These events highlight the vulnerability of small-scale aquaculture to climate change.
