Benefits From R&D and Spill-Overs in Aquaculture: An Eu-15 Modelling Approach

Creator:: Guettler, Stefan and Mueller, Rolf A. E.
Abstract:: Aquaculture is increasingly important for the future supply of fish because of steadily increasing demand while supply from fisheries is stagnating. In the EU aquaculture production has grown strongly in some countries, such as Spain and Greece, but was flat at a low level in others, such as in Germany,...

Conservation for Sale: A Dynamic Common Agency Model of Natural Resource Regulation

Creator:: Boyce, John R.
Abstract:: This paper considers the regulation of a natural resource within a dynamic common agency framework. In setting harvest quotas, the regulator responds to lobbying pressure (contributions) from harvesters and conservationists. The truthful Markov perfect equilibrium stock is then an increasing function of the effective political weight for conservationists. Since the...
