‘Sloppy brush’: Industry pushes back on Outlaw Ocean’s sweeping fish feed investigation

U.S. and Canadian seafood organizations say abuses documented in the fishmeal supply chain warrant scrutiny, but argue the investigation risks undermining producers operating under strict regulatory and sustainability standards.

Outlaw Ocean Project’s “Food for Feed” investigation included six voyages at sea, including ones in the South China Sea, the Southern Ocean near Antarctica, and the North Atlantic Ocean. These expeditions involved boarding fishmeal vessels to review logbooks, inspect living conditions, interview workers, and document potentially illegal practices.Photo: Outlaw Ocean Project
