In the 2011 EU survey the 3M total and female biomass index were 1644 t and 1231 t respectively. These indexes were around 66% lower than last year and the lowest values in the EU survey series. As previous years, the sharp decline of shrimp biomass in Flemish Cap was associated with a strong increase of the cod stock. This unfavorable situation confirms the recommendation carried out within Scientific Council during autumn 2010.
