Abstract
  • The fishery barometer surveys the economic prospects and trends of fishery enterprises in Finland. The barometer survey was developed on the basis of the general business surveys. The survey has been carried out annually since year 2000. Here we study if the results could be explained by external economic information or internal results. The external economic information is based on the official account statistics data. The internal comparison is made by comparing if the entrepreneurs_ opinions of previous years economy explains the prospects for the coming year. The survey population consists of all fisheries sector enterprises on the business register of Statistics Finland. Here the fishery sector includes the whole value chain from fishing, aquaculture and processing to wholesale and retail trade. The results showed that for the fisheries sector enterprises, the turnover information inquired by a telephone survey differed to some extend from the factual information compiled later on the basis of the accounts statistics. The conclusions of the comparisons are discussed more closely in the paper.
