Abstract:: Small-scale fisheries make key contributions to food security, sustainable livelihoods and poverty reduction, yet to date the economic value of small-scale fisheries has been poorly quantified. In this study, we take a novel approach by characterizing post-landing trends of small-scale fisheries resources and estimating their total economic value, including both...

Abstract:: This paper will present some preliminary result from a study of post-harvest losses in the Sri Lanka tuna value chain. Fish losses refer to the decrease in edible fish mass throughout the part of value chain that specifically leads to edible food for human consumption. Sri Lanka is a unique...

Abstract:: The activity of commercial whaling is contentious, drawing the ire of animal rights and conservation groups who threaten boycotts of whaling nations' products. Whaling also has opportunity costs: in addition to existence value, whales provide nonextractive use values, i.e. whale watching. On the other hand, proponents of whaling argue many...

Abstract:: Two species of the Indo-Pacific lionfish (Pterois miles and P. volitans) have rapidly expanded throughout the Gulf of Mexico, mid- and south Atlantic and the Caribbean following their introduction to Florida coastal waters during the mid-1980s through releases from marine aquaria. There is overwhelming scientific agreement on the threats that...

Abstract:: The sustainable management of small-scale fisheries in coral reef ecosystems constitutes a difficult objective especially because these fisheries usually face several stringent pressures including demographic growth and climate changes. The implications are crucial in term of food security as fish represents the major protein source for local populations in those...

Abstract:: This paper proposes a two-stage method to estimate a generalized Gordon-Schaefer model, using heterogeneous fishing data in the logbook. A Cobb-Douglas production function is consistently estimated in the first stage by means of the ‘within period estimator’. A stock index is constructed and used to estimate the logistic growth model...

Abstract:: This paper discusses the connection between the concepts of fishing effort and separability of the variables in a general fisheries production function of the Translog form. It compares the results of the discussion with the Cobb-Douglas and Constant Elasticity of Substitution forms. It concludes that to assume unconditionally that some...
