The workshop was attended by 78 participants from 24 countries. The workshop reported on the use of EU Birds Directive Article 9 derogations, regulations and management measures to reduce the impact of cormorants on fish populations, fisheries and aquaculture in the EIFAAC member states, discussed the outcomes of recent EIFAAC surveys, provided a compilation of management advice for reducing the impact of cormorant predation on fish, fisheries and aquaculture, and discussed some potential regional cormorant management measures. The EIFAAC survey findings showed an increase in cormorant conflicts with recreational fishing and conservation interests, and that many different management measures are applied throughout Europe. Seventy percent of the EIFAAC Members consider that a pan-European management plan for cormorants would be beneficial for inland fisheries and aquaculture. The workshop provided valuable contributions to the management planning process, with a focus on research needs and monitoring the impact of regional management measures. Participants discussed their challenges to reduce cormorant predation on aquaculture ponds, how cormorants negatively impact EU Water Framework Directive outcomes, and whether cormorants could be placed on Annex II (huntable species) of the EU Birds Directive. -
