Abstract:: This paper compares two methods for collecting data concerning professional fishing fleets economic performance : use of preexisting bookkeeping databases and ad hoc field surveys of fishers. Each method has its pros and cons and, for practical reasons, it may be necessary to make use of both. Such a feature...

Abstract:: Indicators of the economic performance of fishing vessels are frequently computed in many countries. Usually, measures of economic performance are based on the return on capital invested. However, several measures of capital value exist, according to the economic information available. In this paper, we use different types of information to...

Abstract:: While the need to solve problems of overcapitalization and excess investment in fisheries is now broadly admitted, very little information exists on the level of capitalization and the structure of capital invested in the fishing sector. This paper presents the first results of a research program aiming at assessing the...

Creator:: Le Floc'h, Pascal, Dangeard, Isabelle, Daures, Fabienne, and Guyader, Olivier
Abstract:: The main objectives assigned to ecosystemic indices are to fuel the debate on the best ways to reduce the impact of global warming. Fishing activities are also concerned with the debate. The assessments carried out about fish products show that the use of fuel in the fishing stage has the...

Creator:: Berthou, Patrick, Leblond, Emilie, Daures, Fabienne, Quillérou, Emmanuelle, and Guyader, Olivier
Abstract:: If the study of the fisheries dynamics increasingly seeks to take into account the evolution of fishing fleets, the main mechanisms which govern their evolution at the local, national or international levels, are often not studied at all, or only partially studied. This applies in particular to vessel entry and...

Abstract:: Mediterranean fisheries are characterized by a high diversity of fishing strategies that can be differentiated according to a gradient from the coast to the offshore area. Over the gradient, fleets interact through the resource. The paper first provides a description of the fishing strategies and proposes a typology for the...

Abstract:: Assessing distribution of the expected bio-economic impacts of management measures between fleet segments is a main issue for decision making in fisheries management. This requires as a first step a good description of the system and of the interactions between fleets through stocks. Making this assessment operational also needs flexible...

Abstract:: The small scale fisheries are generally unknown over the world due to a crucial lack of data, and particularly costs and earnings data. This is also true for the European fisheries while vessels less than 12 meters represent almost 75% of the total European fleet. Faced to the increasing price...

Abstract:: The objective of the paper is to analyse and to simulate fishers dis-investment behaviour especially in the context of the French buyback policy. A case study, the limited entry scallop fishery of the Saint-Brieuc bay is used to consider the problem of excess capacity and to review the impact of...
