  • Evolution and Current Trends in HACCP and Risk Assessment

    Creator:
    Busta, Frank F.
    Abstract:
    International concerns over food safety have accelerated the evolution and implementation of HACCP and risk assessment. Risk assessment and HACCP are constituents of the overall risk analysis process. Risk analysis includes risk management and risk communication in addition to risk assessment. Risk assessment is an integral constituent of the series...

  • An Elemental Basis of Property Rights to Marine Fishery Resources

    Creator:
    Edwards, Steven F.
    Abstract:
    Among the questions that ecosystem-based management raises for economists is how to partition uses of the many biological, chemical and physical attributes of marine ecosystems into sets of property rights that undergird total ocean wealth. An elemental basis of property rights for fisheries involves the interplay between ecological and technological...

  • Rent-Seeking in the U.S. Atlantic Sea Scallop Fishery

    Creator:
    Edwards, Steve F.
    Abstract:
    Rent-seeking in the U.S. Atlantic sea scallop fishery is described. Resource and trade disputes caused the U.S. fishing industry, including scallopers, to lobby Congress for extended federal jurisdiction in 1977. The sea scallop fishery soon overcapitalized as fishermen captured non-exclusive resource rents. Limited entry was introduced in 1994, but an...

  • The FAO International Plan of Action for the Management of Fishing Capacity

    Creator:
    Gréboval, Dominique F.
    Abstract:
    In 1999, the FAO Committee on Fisheries adopted an International Plan of Action for the Management of Fishing Capacity. The paper presents this new international fisheries instrument and discusses the main issues which would need to be addressed by Nations and regional fisheries organizations worldwide to ensure its implementation. Specific...

  • A precautionary approach to aquaculture: the incorporation of risk and incertainty in the feasibility analysis of shrimp hatchery in Mexico

    Creator:
    Martinez-Cordero, F. J., Seijo, J. C., and Juarez, L. M.
    Abstract:
    Sustainable aquaculture can be achieved when risk and uncertainly are incorporated in the analysis of the activity. This paper presents a precautionary approach to the feasibility analysis of a project for a commercial hatchery, applying decision theory. Two production scenarios were assessed, continuous and periodic, the later a combination of...

  • Conservation and Optimum Utilization of Southern Bluefin Tuna

    Creator:
    Campbell, H. F., Kennedy, J. O. S., and McIlgorm, A.
    Abstract:
    The paper predicts the outcomes of alternative management scenarios for the Southern Bluefin Tuna (SBT) fishery over the next twenty years. Two criteria are used to characterize outcomes: economic efficiency as measured by the present value of fishery rent generated; and conservation as measured by the predicted size of the...

  • Common Pool Politics and inefficient Fishery Management

    Creator:
    Hoffmann, Julia and Quaas, Martin F.
    Abstract:
    The main instrument used in fishery management is the total allowable catch (TAC). Fishery management often fails because TACs are set too high and do not sufficiently restrict fisheries. The question we address in this paper is why do decision makers choose inefficiently high TACs? Our approach is to model...

  • Apprenticeship and Conservation Incentives

    Creator:
    Alden, Robin and Brewer, Jennifer F.
    Abstract:
    Apprentice programs offer a method to encourage responsible individual behavior by laying the foundation for successful collective property rights. Apprenticeship has three purposes: to restrict the rate of entry, to affect the quality of the participant, and to create the conditions for collective action for sustainability. Apprenticeship could be an...

  • Climate Change: Implication on Aquatic Resources, Food Security and Livelihoods

    Creator:
    Badmus, Olanrewaju, Obadiah, F. V., Olaoye, J. O., Yacim, S. E., Laniyi, A. L., and Adedeji, F. A.
    Abstract:
    Climate changes are growing environmental concerns which are much in the scientific government and public eye at present. The potential impact on aquatic resources and livelihood are immense. From local to global levels, fisheries and aquaculture play important roles for food supply, food security and income generation. Some 43.5 million...

  • The Importance of N-3 Fatty Acids in Health and Disease

    Creator:
    Connor, William F. and Connor, Sonja L.
    Abstract:
    The n-3 fatty acids have important effects to modulate and prevent human diseases, particularly coronary heart disease. Their effects upon the brain later in life to prevent certain disorders such as Alzheimer's Disease are unknown but are certainly worthy of study. Certainly the evidence is now very strong that the...
