For thousands of years, fishes (feed) the people of Peru. It was only when the industrial fishing boats got started in 1950s that people lost interest in the fish. Modern fishery turned most of its catch into fishmeal(鱼饲料) for feeding other animals. In fact, most of the fish (catch) yearly around the world are for use other than eating, and 90% of them are (perfect) good to eat.
White is a researcher at the University of British Columbia and he spent years (research) into fishery catches around the world. According his study, about 27% of ocean fish which were caught became fishmeal or fish oil. Those products were used to feed farmed fish or used in agriculture.
"There could be a (good) use of these fish," says White. Instead of feeding fish to fish, the fish could feed people, especially those need high-quality protein. But the reason why that doesn't happen is a (combine) of economics and regulations(法规). In many places, a fisherman can get more money if he sells his catch for fishmeal than if he sells it to the locals for meals. And in Peru, a change in how fishes are handled could both satisfy the need to feed the people and supply the fishmeal industry.
