Answer

Why is Palma mentioned in the Mallorca fishing debate?

Palma matters because it is a natural place for dialogue between authorities, cooperatives and scientists, especially when fishing rules affect the whole island.

The focus is on finding solutions that work both for the harbor and for fish-stock management.
