The article describes the current situation with regard to the main regions of theEuphausia superbafishery, as well as seasonal variations in the fishery. The total annual catch (for all fishing countries), now totalling 300,000 metric tons, does not influence recruitment of the krill, nor does it have an impact on the feeding requirements of krill consumers. The lack of precise data on a number of parameters, makes necessary a very rational approach to the fishery practices. In this connection it is reasonable to expand the areas of fishery activities, but concentrating those activities in the area of the Antarctic Circumpolar Current. Ecological monitoring and monitoring of the fishery are required. On this basis models of the fishery and of stocks ofE. superbamay be developed in order to control the krill resources that are under stress.
