Japan's coastal fishing industry aiming for bold changes

Osamu Oka, head of a fishery cooperative in Kishiwada, southern Osaka, holds on Aug. 1, 2017 a sardine caught off the city's Jizohama district, which is traded at expensive prices at Tokyo's Tsukiji fish market. The district is one of more than 600 fishing communities in Japan that have implemented bold coastal fishing revival plans to turn around sagging revenues amid higher material costs, dwindling fish catches and an aging workforce.
