## Food Web (1) - Prey Availability

.pull-left[
Fish stocks and protected species stocks are managed using single species approaches, but fish and protected species stocks exist within a food web of predator and prey interactions. This element is one of two separating food web risks to achieving OY for Council managed species from two sources. This first element assesses prey availability for each species, and the second food web risk element assesses predation pressure on each species (see Food Web (2)- Predation Pressure).

Risks from all prey (1) and all predators (2) are considered.

Indicators of prey availability combine aggregate prey abundance and species body condition (relative weight at length).

## Food Web (2) - Predation Pressure

A range of potential predation pressure indicators were discussed. The EOP Committee and AP agreed to use available data at present while total predation mortality indicators from full food web models are developed and tested.

The EOP and AP agreed to a threshold value for low predation of 10%. In addition, at least 50% of predation mortality should be accounted for in selected indicators by combining the most important predators.

## Ecosystem Productivity

Ecosystem Production Unit).  Productivity at the base of the food web supports and ultimately limits
the amount of managed species production in an ecosystem.
