- The Toyosu Market in Tokyo, Japan is a 4 million square foot area for squid, mackerel, and, most importantly, tuna. The market is home to the world-renowned tuna auctions, where expert bidders bet millions of dollars on top-tier tuna. But the population of tuna is on the decline, specifically bluefin tuna, which is known as the king of sushi. Business Insider follows expert bidder Takayuki Shinoda inside the fast-paced world of tuna bidding and its role in marine life sustainability.

How A 600 Pound Tunafish Sells For $3 Million At The Largest Fish Market In The World | Big Business
"I am worried that there will be no tuna for you after 20 years, also we receive truckloads of tuna every hour"
Hope that japanese guy goes broke💪
I was thinking the exact same thing.... You are part of the problem fishboi!
Literally a bruh moment lmao
It’s not his fault it’s just about the money that’s the way it is
I was just about to comment this. Good luck catching that tasty bluefin in the next decade.
Down 97% in just 10 years...that's actually insane.
Probably because of China.
@@WaterspoutsOfTheDeep great comment
They need to regulate even more.
@UCLgJ4VMYXsHpFjcZFMiPZ0g I was just informed it was a bot.Erasing my comment
@@WaterspoutsOfTheDeep wrong, this is happenings because of bulgaria...
Crazy how they’re concerned about no more tuna being left in 30 years but yet they’re still overfishing
9:10 They actually already limit the quota in this part, but maybe it will not change the problem anytime soon
When you fish out 90% of the population in 10 years youve got one hell of a bad habit to break. Now to convince everyone these fish contain mercury
supply and demand law
It's cause you eat too much! They wouldn't overfish if there was no demand.
@@theshuman100 they know the fishes have mercury. they just dont care. same with the japanese people who eat dolphins. they just dont care. it taste good.
I absolutely adore tuna. It’s my favorite sushi and I just love it. But I would be more than happy to give it up for two years if it meant a worldwide ban on fishing tuna would help bring back the population.
Agreed, If I had to give up Sushi in order to stabilize the fish population I would do it in a heartbeat.
The problem is that these large fish don't reproduce and grow up that quickly, so they don't reach maturity until 5 years. That means you would actually need multiples of that age in order for the population to really recover, which would mean decades of decreased or no catching
I prefer salmon tbh, but tuna is a very close second
@@kevinwells9751 I don't see an issue with that. There's plenty of other fish in the sea. They've recently stopped selling my snus in the US... I simply moved to a different product.
Prawn based sushi is where it’s at 👌 and that can just be bred and matured in a tank.
Prawns need to be cooked though but a place I went to sells warm, slightly fried with batter, sushi. The ends of the roll have full prawns sticking out fully battered, the sauce too, god. It tastes like takoyaki in roll form with rice. So good... I want some now.
Hold up - so the tuna population is decreasing and we are still fishing them by truckloads? that doesn't add up lol
So did the sharks and people still hunting them because the Chinese like shark fin soup very much
How doesn’t that add up?
Wdyem ?
@Business Insider bot
This reply section is more confusing than my math assignment
It will definitely go extinct since there’s no way they will stop fishing those 3 million tunas 😌
its always the greed, like even just economically it would make sense to fish these responsibly, so you can make more money in the long run, but no ppl just want it now, not thinking about future
Ikr it's sad
While the harvest may be a 2000% increase they fail to mention that the production and farm raising of the fish has also risen by 2000%
if they fish the tuna to extinction their economy will crash, almost every restaurant uses tuna
@@thabangedward2084
That’s kinda a no brained comment, it’s like running out of toilet paper. There’s more, like vegetables, the farmers increase production
Anyone else remembers when there was this concept called hunting/fishing season? So that for certain periods of time some animals couldn't be catched be cause it was their mating season; something very necessary for their population to regain it's lost numbers after hunting/fishing season?
Yeah, neither do I.
@Figgy Newton And then people just don't eat some parts of the year? Human are way too stupid and selfish to mitigate the food shortages that would result from the very reasonable suggestion you just made. We could if we wanted to, but we are far too stupid and selfish for that. So what would happen is the lowest income and most impoverished people would suffer the most.
I do my best to eat either fruits & vegtibales that are in season.
When you kill a fish in mating season you kill thousands of new fish
Yeah human greed will be our downfall.
@@MikeySkywalker Yes people would die because they cant eat a specific fish at one time of the year, It's not like there would be other fish or even other food.
I've heard in some countries, when they hunt land animals, every 5-7 seasons they have 1 full year no hunting year when all the animals can reproduce and leave their offspring to boost population, but for sure there are seasons when you can hunt each of the species.
I think this needs to be implemented in regards to marine life too.
Those durr tea bat eaters should eat reproducible meat. Like beef you know. Tastes much better than any fish. But they are bootists and think mooh moohs are holy.
It is. Just not in Japan.

When I was stationed in Guam I went deep sea fishing twice. Both times I did not catch a single thing.

You must know $3 million is a "gift price" to celebrate the new year. There is a custom to bid with pretty much high price the first auction of the year and the winner earn the fame. In usual auction, the price would be some ten thousand dollars. The gift price also depends on the economic state of the year. $3 million at 2019 was the highest among recent years.
Thank you for this, I knew there was something wrong with $11,000/kg, even for the best tuna for the most high end applications. This makes a lot more sense.
@@damien4197 I'm glad if it is helpful. It is a bit strange that almost all English media forget to mention about this custom when they make the news on $3 million tuna. I don't know if it's accidental, or intentional. At least, every original Japanese sources clearly refer to the new year auction.

Yup...I did
The problem of declining catches due to overfishing is not limited to Japan. There is no change in the fact that it is a problem that fishermen in countries all over the world must think about. Even if one country regulates the amount of fish caught, it doesn't make sense if fishermen in another country are overfishing. Tuna is not the only tuna that is endangered due to overfishing, and if sushi becomes more popular around the world in the future, it will undoubtedly become a major problem.
It’s mostly cause of china overfishing and poaching cause they have no respect or regard towards nature or the world
I agree, just like pollution control. However, the US has strict fishing regulations, especially for tuna. Japan has none, and if they do, they are only on paper. Never enforced.

The Newsworthy Price tags are mostly due a Japanese tradition where many industries which are similar to the Blue Fin Tuna industry, where the first Bid of the year is way over the what the actual product (what they'll would've have actually paid for it) is worth just because it's a traditional thing they do for a successful year of work.
So it's a PR thing?
@@leowzhilin Probably yeah, since I doubt the financial would make sense otherwise unless it was for a cultural reason, which Japan has quite a bit of especially in the Workplace.

Here in Ireland our Bluefin population is higher than ever. The Tuinnín here is the Northeastern Atlantic Bluefin tuna stock that migrates from the Mediterranean to Northern waters to feed. They migrate to Ireland from Summer to late Autumn. In
Ireland it is legal to fish for Tuinnín as a sport fish on a C&R basis. A tagging programme was also setup to moniter the stock. It is illegal to fish for them commercially Irish waters.
They're increased population has also been noted in the UK and Norway. But Ireland has had the best explosion by far. 600lb is the average Tuinnín and a big one is 800 + . They are mostly caught on the West, North West and South West Coasts. The counties are Gaillimh, Maigh Eo, Corcaigh and Dún na nGall. Irelands population of massive Bluefin Tuna is because we outlawed the commercial catching and sale of this amazing species. Most fisherman who caught Tuinnín commercialy now run Fishing guide boats from all those counties listed to catch and release some big game Bluefin.

Gotta love the world. We cry about jobs and way of living while also systematically making fish as an entity go extinct.
The blue fin are already being depleted due to demand. When sushi was limited to Japan it was sustained but now the world is eating sushi. They take a long time to mature. Unfortunately they will likely become extinct or depleted to the point of no return.
This is one market where I like it to be closed completely.
Child: Dad what should we do with the money in backyard .
Dad: lets go buy fish, big one.
0:42 No tuna is actually worth that much ( $3 million). The winning bidder is the owner of the Zanmai Sushi chain of sushi shops which has dozens of locations - 5 locations in the Tsukiji market alone. He has made winning bids on the most expensive tuna for many years now, and it's done mainly for publicity than for the actual worth of the fish (he sells off that fish at regular prices). He paid a lot of money for the giant fish, but just think of how much free promotion he got, and how much money he saved on other forms of promotions.
Thanks, I couldnt figure out the math in my head, because no customer would pay that ridiccoulous Price.
Yes, thank you. I knew there had to be a catch. Either that or some people in Japan are literally insane :P
It is also only for the ceremonial first tuna of the year. Winning that tuna is supposed to bring good luck to your business.
I dont understand the Japanese. They complain about the overfishing in the world's oceans but have done nothing to curb the selling and processing of fish and other seafood. Japan is by far the biggest consumer of seafood. Especially Tuna. Not to mention Whaling and Dolphins.
Takayushi is actually concerned he would lost profit than being concerned about the tuna population declining
And he keep overfishing
Takayushi is a weirdo dumb

A way to fix this is probably regulate this business. so fish would not be extinct and business people having stock of fish to work with and still make money

@@Lucky8s people not giving a crap about politics is what got us here. We just let the bigwigs at top get away with the monetization and depletion of every known thing because we are complacent and fear change.

Just don't eat it lol. Politards really don't have a personality.
@@Lucky8s it's not about being polite it's about making sure future generations have a better place to live instead of a worse one. I don't understand what your acceptable alternative would be? Being a rudetard? Should I constantly seek out conflict, ignore facts and reason, and insist any other belief than mine is is the wrong one? While you're entitled to have that opinion I am also entitled to mine and I believe the more people as a whole don't care about what or how government policies affect us and our fellow humans the worse the offenses of those at the top become. Peace out, angry online stranger.
Damn.. I need to be a tuna fisherman. Catch one of these and I can have early retirement 😂

Proceeds to show worker grab tuna head by eyes.
They seriously need to take a break and let these fish blossom again. Don't butcher these fish to extinction.
I'm very content with my $4 chicken of the sea
WOW!!! So much tuna. 🐟
I wonder if any cats stole any free tuna? 😺
I'm more interested in those ridable trolley, I wonder if you can drift them.
