While all of the listed factors have played a role in shaping the fishing industry in North America over the past 50 years, the **improvement in fisheries management** stands out as having the greatest impact. Effective fisheries management has been crucial in ensuring sustainable fish populations, adjusting quotas, and implementing conservation measures to protect ecosystems. This has led to more resilient fish stocks and, ultimately, the long-term viability of the fishing industry itself.
