quota

Share of the Total Allowable Catch (TAC) allocated to an operating unit such as a country, a vessel, a company or an individual fisherman (individual quota). Quotas may or may not be transferable, inheritable, and tradable. While generally used to allocate TAC, quotas could be used also to allocate fishing effort or biomass.
