In 2010, Greenpeace International has added the blue grenadier (hoki) to its seafood red list.

For just six quid each, we got a deliciousfreshly-caught blue grenadier cooked to perfection of the barbie:

In 2009, he received criticism for an article on the sustainability of the blue grenadier fish from representatives of the New Zealand fishing industry.

Hoki (fish), another name for blue grenadier, a merluccid hake of the genus Macruronus.

Macruronus novaezelandiae (Blue grenadier)

See, Royalty ascends; a blue Grenadier lifts the poor little Prince Royal from the press; Royalty has entered in.

A 2009 New York Times article raised questions over the sustainability of blue grenadier fishing practices around New Zealand, though its conclusions were disputed by New Zealand representatives.

The blue grenadier is the subject of a large commercial fishery industry in New Zealand, which has been certified by the Marine Stewardship Council as well-managed and sustainable in March 2001.

Although the majority of giant squid caught by trawl in New Zealand waters have been associated with the local Blue grenadier ('Macruronus novaezelandiae') fishery, the fish themselves do not feature in the squid's diet.

Several species are important commercial fish, for example the blue grenadier (Macruronus novaezelandiae) that is fished in the southwest Pacific and the North Pacific hake (Merluccius productus) that is fished off western North America.

The researchers, from Memorial University in St. John's, Newfoundland, found a decline of 89 to 98 percent in just a 17-year span starting in 1978 in the populations of five fish species - roundnose grenadier, onion-eye grenadier, blue hake, spiny eel and spinytail skate.

A 2006 study by Canadian scientists has found five species of deep-sea fish - blue hake, spiny eel - to be on the verge of extinction due to the shift of commercial fishing from continental shelves to the slopes of the continental shelves, down to depths of 1600 meters.

Off the United States, the National Marine Fisheries Service is helping industry explore fisheries for deep shrimp, rattails, chimeras, orange roughy, smoothheads, slackjaw eels, blue hake, skates and dogfish, which the National Fisheries Institute, an industry group, in an effort to improve their marketability, has renamed cape shark.
