Dans un marché de libre concurrence, certains paramètres tels que la saison de pêche et la taille des produits halieutiques ont une très grande importance sur la fixation des prix et la volonté à payer du consommateur. Afin de valider ces données, des échantillons de palourdes de l'Atlantique (Spisula solidissima),...
The quest from tourists and visitors for authentic places with a real identity can lead to an opportunity to maintain some fishing activities at the seaside. In this context, fishing activities not only provide commodity goods but also have other functions (environmental, social, and territorial, among others). In this respect,...
In the context of the restriction of production, French agriculture modifies its activities by developing multifunctionality. This concept translates the fact that, beyond the saleable production of agricultural and food processing products, the agricultural activity fulfills other functions: economic, social, environmental. Multifunctionality of agriculture is implemented in a number of...
While French marine fisheries must cope with increasing difficulties, the concept of
multifunctionality of fisheries (as previously observed in agriculture) is emerging
through a diversification of activities. Indeed, fishers resort to alternatives in order to
sustain their activity by calling on new ways to interact with environment, institutional
players, scientists,...
Potential changes in the tobacco program have prompted research of aquaculture crops in Kentucky. Using a dynamic, programming model, this paper evaluates two methods for producing pond-raised paddlefish to assess if either method is economically viable in Kentucky. Results indicate that a polyculture system with catfish is profitable.
Whatever the quantity and the rate of water utilization is, economic principles indicate that there will
always be other water utilization methods which might increase the efficiency of the use of this resource.
Due to the geo-climatic position of Iran, this country finds itself in a water deficit situation as...
Information on economic viability of aquaculture is crucial for investors when assessing the feasibility of an aquaculture investment. Unfortunately, such information has been scarce in Nigeria. The economic analysis of fish farming in Osun State, South-Western Nigeria was therefore carried out using data collected from seventy two randomly selected fish...
A linear programming (LP) profit-maximization model and a Target MOTAD risk programming model were developed to identify optimal management strategies and associated risk levels for the aquaculture of penaeid shrimp in Honduras. Data for this study were provided by three cooperating shrimp farms and included complete production records of 1,004...
There is significant interest in self-regulation as an alternative to command and control techniques. (Black 1996) Self-regulation is thought to be more efficient and expert and hence more effective than traditional approaches. Interest in alternative fishing regulatory styles such as self-regulation has been fuelled by the perception that command and...
