  • Fishery Management When Biological and Economic Disturbances Are Correlated

    Creator:
    Kennedy, Chris J.
    Abstract:
    Economists studying the management of fisheries have universally assumed disturbances affecting harvest costs are unrelated to disturbances affecting biological growth. This paper gives examples of commercially valuable species that are impacted reproductively and behaviorally by a single environmental variable (e.g., temperature), leading to correlated disturbances in current marginal harvest costs...

  • Policy Options for Management of Highly Migratory Fish Stocks in the Western and Central Pacific Ocean

    Creator:
    Kennedy, John
    Abstract:
    Highly migratory fish stocks in the Western and Central Pacific Ocean are an important source of income for those Pacific island nations through whose economic zones the stocks pass, and for distant water fishing nations that target the stocks. Although the tropical stocks have been regarded in the past as...

  • The Stability of Rent Maximization in the Western and Central Pacific Fishery

    Creator:
    Kennedy, John and Hannesson, Rögnvaldur
    Abstract:
    The potential for achieving sustainable and efficient harvesting of three species of migratory tuna in the Western and Central Pacific Ocean is examined. The stocks reside in exclusive economic zones (mainly those of Pacific island countries) and in the high seas. Most harvesting is carried out by distant water fishing...

  • Landing Fees Versus Fish Quotas

    Creator:
    Hannesson, Rognvaldur and Kennedy, John
    Abstract:
    The relative efficiency of landing fees versus quota controls to achieve given escapement levels is examined. The criterion is profit per year over a given time horizon. The model employed is a discrete version of the logistic model where growth is influenced by a random variable. Simulations are used to...

  • Thin Wholesale Markets and Direct Marketing in Renewable Resource Exploitation

    Creator:
    Kennedy, Chris J. and Scott, Steve
    Abstract:
    The ex-vessel supply chain for fisheries has been recognized as an important determinant of value generation. In recent years, as the retail demand for fresh seafood products has increased, many independent fishermen have bypassed thin, monopsonized, or otherwise inferior wholesale markets by engaging in implicit or explicit fixed-output contracts with...

  • The Relative Efficiency of Fees and Quotas Applied to Fisheries Under Different Types of Uncertainty

    Creator:
    Kennedy, John O. S. and Hannesson, Røgnvaldur
    Abstract:
    Quotas rather than landing fees are widely used for reducing the output of fisheries below open-access levels. One reason may be that quotas are perceived as a more reliable instrument for controlling total catch. However, whilst under certainty fees and quotas can be set each season to achieve the same...

  • Effects of Catfish and Crawfish Imports on U.S. Domestic Prices

    Creator:
    Kennedy, P. Lynn and Lee, Young-Jae
    Abstract:
    Recent increases in imports of catfish and crawfish have caused concern as to their impact on domestic prices. This study identifies the linkages between imports of these goods and U.S. producer prices. Increases in imports of catfish are shown to decrease related domestic prices. However, recent trends show a simultaneous...

  • Optimal Batch Lengths for Barramundi Farming Under Seasonal Variations: A Dynamic Programming Approach

    Creator:
    Rupasinghe, Jagath W. and Kennedy, John O.S.
    Abstract:
    Key decision variables in aquaculture management are stocking level, feeding schedule, temperature control and batch length. In many management problems with an infinite planning horizon, the aim is to find the batch length which results in maximum return if the same batch length applies to all future batches. This may...

  • Fish is More Than a Brain Food

    Creator:
    Ackman, Robert G.
    Abstract:
    From merely being cod liver oil taken for vitamins A and D, fish oils have moved into the center stage of fatty acids in nutrition. The analytical work starting in 1950 provided the means to recognize the long-chain and truly essential n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids vital for retinal, neurological and...

  • Green Accounting for a Commercial Fishery

    Creator:
    Cairns, Robert D.
    Abstract:
    The theory of extensions to the national accounts is expressed in models in which wealth is being explicitly maximized. For the fishery, the central issue is such valuation when the policy being followed is inefficient. We begin the task of making such valuations for commercial products of a fishery. Capacity...
