Las dificultades que supone el fijar el esfuerzo o la captura admisible total de pesca obedecen entre otras cosas a la variabilidad del recurso y al efecto de la presión pesquera que sobre él se ejerce, así como a la dificultad respectiva de controlar y/o hacer cumplir el esfuerzo o captura admisible total de pesca, especialmente si otras flotas pesqueras (extranjeras) están explotando el recurso de que se trata.
