The three-month closed fishing season in northeastern Palawan has been lifted starting Feb. 1, paving the way for the resumption of commercial activities in one of the country’s main fishing grounds. The annual November-January closed season — aligned with the peak spawning season for round scad or locally known as galunggong — is intended to protect and replenish aquatic resources for sustainability.
