A Comparative Analysis of Recent Trends in the Characteristics of Selected European Fishing Fleets

Creator:: Thebaud, Olivier, Guyader, Olivier, Mardle, Simon, Hutton, Trevor, Le Floc'h, Pascal, Clapes, Juan Pintos, Prellezo, Raul, Steinmetz, Fabien, and Van Oostenbrugge, Hans
Abstract:: The objective of the paper is to briefly present a comparative analysis of trends in the characteristics of selected European fleets, observed over the last fifteen years, as an introduction to three empirical studies of the behavioural determinants of these trends. The analysis presented aims at (i) describing changes observed...

Assessing Economic Performance and Capital Productivity in the Fisheries Sector - The Case of Fishing Vessels in Brittany (France)

Creator:: Le Floc'h, Pascal, Daures, Fabienne, Guyader, Olivier, Thébaud, Olivier, and Boncoeur, Jean
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...

Empirical Analysis of Fishing Fleet Dynamics: Entry, Stay and Exit Choices in Selected EU Fisheries

Creator:: Mardle, Simon, Thebaud, Olivier, Guyader, Olivier, Hutton, Trevor, Prellezo, Raul, and Travers, Muriel
Abstract:: The decision to enter or exit a fishery can be expected to depend on the anticipated profitability of operating in this fishery, as a function of observed vessel performances in previous years. For a vessel exiting a fishery, there may be several reasons including decommissioning, selling or operating elsewhere. Entry...

Estimating Capital Value and Depreciation of Fishing Fleets: Application to French Fisheries

Creator:: Daures, Fabienne, Bihel, Julien, Guyader, Olivier, Le Floc'h, Pascal, Roudaut, Nolwenn, Brigaudeau, Cécile, Thebaud, Olivier, and Jezequel, Michele
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...

Comparing bookkeeping and field survey methods for assessing fishing fleets economic performance. A case study of Brittany fishing fleets (France)

Creator:: Boncoeur, Jean, Daures, Fabienne, Guyader, Olivier, Martin, Annaick, le Floc'h, Pascal, and Thebaud, Olivier
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...

A Fish Discarding Model Including Sorting Behaviour

Creator:: Macher, Claire, Guyader, Olivier, and Boncoeur, Jean
Abstract:: This paper proposes a formal analysis of the discarding issue including the sorting labour costs. Empirical evidences from an application to the Nephrops fishery in the Bay of Biscay show that sorting is an important time consuming activity on board and a factor of discarding. However existing literature does not...

Explaining Short-Term Choice Through Random Utility Models

Creator:: Prellezo, Raul, Andersen, Bo, Guyader, Olivier, Hutton, Trevor, Marchal, Paul, Mardle, Simon, and Thebaud, Olivier
Abstract:: Fisher behavior can be divided into choices made in the short term (i.e. tactics) and choices made in the long-mid term (i.e. strategies). Random utility modeling (RUM) is well suited for the empirical analysis of these issues. In this paper, RUM is applied to a number of EU fisheries in...

Biological Invasion Control in a Coastal Fishery: A Bioeconomic Analysis of the Bay of Saint-Brieuc Scallop Fishery (France)

Creator:: Fresard, Marjolaine, Fifas, Spyros, and Guyader, Olivier
Abstract:: This paper deals with the economic impact of an aquatic invasive alien species on a coastal shellfish fishery. A slipper-limpet (Crepidula fornicata ) was accidentally imported some decades ago, has established and is spreading in the bay of Saint-Brieuc (France). This exotic species is acting as a space competitor for...

An Analysis of Changing Fishing Units Using Field Surveys: Case Studies from the EU

Creator:: Hutton, Trevor, Guyader, Olivier, Prellezo, Raul, Mardle, Simon, and Thebaud, Olivier
Abstract:: Three case studies were included in a study on fishing vessels, most of which use trawl gear in demersal fisheries. The case studies include the French Bay of Biscay bottom-trawlers, the English beam trawlers fishing in the English Channel, Celtic Sea and North Sea, and the Basque trawlers fishing in...

Distributional Effects of Quota Self-Governance by French Producer Cooperatives: The Case of the Bay of Biscay Sole Fishery

Creator:: Bellanger, Manuel, Macher, Claire, and Guyader, Olivier
Abstract:: Quota allocation mechanisms have distributional effects with important issues concerning the economic organization of the fishery and acceptability. Yet, these distributional effects are rarely studied. In France, where fishing rights are not transferable, the quotas are shared between producer cooperatives based on the historical landings of their members. Each cooperative...
