Abstract

Current trends for expansion of aquatic bioresources consumption by human, considering their importance for food security governance, maintenance of life and poverty alleviation inevitably lead to the urgency of balancing consumer interest with the ecological interest, which involve ensuring the rational use, proper protection and preservation condition of aquatic bioresources stock. Aquatic bioresources are an important economic resource, on the one hand, and on the other – an integrated component of wildlife as an object of environmental protection. It determines the regulation of the legal regime of aquatic bioresources use by norms of environmental, agriculture and business law. According to the Aquatic Animal Health Strategy 2021‑2025, approves by the World Organization for Animal Health, demand for aquatic animal products has been increasing and is predicted to rise by at least 32% by 2030, just as the increase of production of such products is wield major influence on achievement of many UN Sustainable Development Goals. In view of this, the position that the concept of fisheries development in a civilized society should be focused not only on meeting the economic needs of the state, but also aimed at ensuring the rational use of aquatic bioresources, their effective reproduction, appealing to those ecological functions they perform in the natural ecosystem, is substantiated in the article. Achieving this goal is seen in the ecologization of economic activity, reinforcement guarantees of unimpeded access of citizens to aquatic bioresources and improving the management component in the studied area. Moreover, the paper reflects issues related to the prospects of implementing of key provisions of the EU Common Fisheries Policy in national environmental legislation.
