Indeed, it tripled between the summer of 2002 and late last year, according to a report last November by Advanced Tuna Ranching Technologies (ATRT), a consultancy firm in Madrid. Why? Blame the worldwide taste for sushi.

Many Spanish and French fishing companies have used the subsidies to overhaul their fleets, installing sonar systems...
