Creator:: Tveterås, Ragnar, Tveterås, Sigbjørn, and Sissener, Elin H.
Abstract:: Increased livestock and aquaculture production can put pressure on the fishmeal market, and thus industrial fisheries stocks, since both of these sectors use fishmeal in their feeds. Data indicate that fishmeal supply has reached a production limit due to limited marine resources. Meanwhile there has been an explosive growth in...

Creator:: Sumaila, Ussif Rashid, Pilcher, Tony, Haggan, Nigel, and Jones, Russ
Abstract:: We argue in this paper that the present fishery policy goal of sustaining current levels of ecosystem resources will foreclose future options for the generation of food, wealth and services from ocean resources. Hence, only a policy of rebuilding of ecosystems can reverse this trend. A novel methodology, termed Back...

Creator:: Mafimisebi, Taiwo Ejiola
Abstract:: Catfishes are the most popularly raised and consumed fish species in Nigeria. Given changes in the dynamics of the aquaculture sector, this paper estimated technical efficiency and factors contributing to it using data collected from 108 farmers stocking catfish in earthen ponds in the study area. Catfish aquaculture was found...

Creator:: Emami, Ali and Johnston, Richard S.
Abstract:: Most trade literature is concerned with gains from free trade under the assumption that traded goods are produced under complete property rights. Seldom have researchers examined the consequences of free trade in the presence of incomplete property rights over renewable natural resources. In this paper, we explore these consequences. In...

Abstract:: This paper is focussed upon the marketing implications and adoption responses from a 3 years multidisciplinary Research Councils UK project which has examined the prospects for UK (agricultural) farmers to diversify into production of warm-water tilapia. The proposed production process and product characteristics abound with green credentials, consistent with emergent...

Creator:: Knapp, Gunnar
Abstract:: As world farmed salmon production has grown, so has the intensity of the debate over salmon farming. Critics have characterized salmon farming as environmentally, economically and socially unsound and irresponsible. This paper argues that underlying much of the salmon farming debate is a far broader debate over many of the...

Creator:: Wada, Nikolas, Delgado, Christopher, and Ahmed, Mahfuzuddin
Abstract:: The incorporation of fisheries commodities into the International Food Policy Research Institute’s (IFPRI) International Model for Policy Analysis of Agricultural Commodities and Trade (IMPACT) model suggests that demand for fisheries products will rise faster than supply over the next two decades, and that fishery commodity prices will rise relative to...

Creator:: Wada, Nikolas, Delgado, Christopher, and Tacon, Albert
Abstract:: The rapid growth of aquaculture and concomitant growth in the use of compound aquafeeds have resulted in aquaculture using 35% of global fishmeal and 54% of global fish oil in 2000, up from just 10% and 16% respectively in 1988. Meanwhile, landings of reduction fish have hovered near 30 mmt,...

Creator:: Lincoln, Jennifer and Knapp, Gunnar
Abstract:: Background: Many studies have suggested that fisheries management may affect fishing safety. However, there has been relatively little systematic analysis of how fisheries management affects safety or the extent to which changes in management can make fishing safer or less safe. Methods: The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United...

Abstract:: While aquaculture has provided economic and nutritional benefits to millions, there are concerns that unconstrained sector expansion and intensification, coupled with its ecological and social impacts, globalization of markets, and climate change, may have undesirable impacts on the resilience of social-ecological systems. A significant part of the aquaculture expansion is...
