Creator:: Szymkowiak, Marysia
Abstract:: Rights-based fisheries management programs allocate to fishermen a specified portion of the annual TAC, providing fishermen with the incentive to optimize the value of this share, which has been shown to lead to more economically efficient behavior. Less efficient operators will tend to leave the fishery, decreasing overcapacity, but this...

Creator:: Dresdner-Cid, Jorge and Estay-Montecinos, Manuel
Abstract:: In this paper we measure the value of sanitary restrictions in terms of forgone profits. For this we model the trade-off between biosecurity and profits in the salmon aquaculture industry. We introduce the concept of “sanitary desirable volume” of the salmon industry, as a goal in a bi-objective model. We...

Abstract:: While studies have long examined the economic viability of oyster industries along the Pacific and Atlantic coasts of the mainland United States, Hawai`i has had no industry to speak of in modern times. This may soon change due to the recent establishment of a long-absent water quality monitoring program required...

Abstract:: Tuna farming industry of Japan has achieved complete culture and currently tries to seize the opportunity to materialize the industrial mass production of the artificial seed. Japan was only 3,000 tons (8%) among 37,000 tons of 2007, which was the peak of world production of cultured tuna. However in 2008,...

Abstract:: This research analyzes the effects that a redistributive fishing quota policy, within a collective rights quota assignment system, might have on the profits and employment of artisanal fisher organizations. The Chilean authorities have been pursuing a deliberate quota redistributive policy between ship-owners of different vessel categories. This policy has affected...

Abstract:: In this paper we study whether environmental bureaucrats share preferences for environmental policy with the general public. We use the choice experiment method to elicit preferences for improvements in coastal cod abundance along the Swedish West coast. This is done for the general public, Swedish EPA (SEPA) bureaucrats, and for...

Abstract:: Small-scale fisheries make key contributions to food security, sustainable livelihoods and poverty reduction, yet to date the economic value of small-scale fisheries has been poorly quantified. In this study, we take a novel approach by characterizing post-landing trends of small-scale fisheries resources and estimating their total economic value, including both...

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...

Creator:: Solis, Daniel, Agar, Juan, and del Corral, Julio
Abstract:: The introduction of individual fishing quotas (IFQs) in the Gulf of Mexico red snapper fishery significantly impacted the way the commercial fleet operated. As result of the added flexibility afforded by the IFQ program, vessels began taking fewer but longer trips. They also began diversifying the composition of their catch....

Abstract:: The potential economic impact of a fully developed mariculture industry in Alaska is not well understood by industry or policy makers. It is also not entirely clear what is needed to move from Alaska’s current micro industry (approximately $500,000 in annual sales) to a fully developed industry. In general, the...
