Creator:: Onumah, Edward
Abstract:: This study considers a cross sectional data of 210 farms to analyze the technical efficiency levels of intensive and semi-intensive fish farms in Ghana using the meta-frontier approach. This technique takes into consideration farms that operate under different technologies. It estimates technology gap that measures output from the frontier production...

Creator:: Tingley, Diana and Pascoe, Sean
Abstract:: Technical efficiency (TE) measures the relationship between a vessel’s inputs to the fishing process and its outputs, with full efficiency being achieved when outputs are maximised from a given set of inputs. Inputs can be physical (e.g. the vessel, gear, engine, onboard equipment, etc.), flexible (time spent fishing, size of...

Abstract:: Nigerian aquaculture industry is fairly well developed and ranks second in Africa. It has low production levels compared with the country's aquaculture production potentials. Aquaculture production in 2001 was 47,000 tonnes contributing 9.92% of total fisheries production. If aquaculture production is to play its expected role in economic development of...

Abstract:: Since the collapse of the Newfoundland groundfishery in 1992, the snow crab fishery has become Newfoundland’s largest fishery, accounting for approximately half the value of total landings. This study uses trip log data to estimate the production frontier and the technical efficiency of this fishery using a Stochastic Frontier Analysis...

Abstract:: Milkfish has been farmed in Taiwan for over 300 years. Faced with a limited land resource, the industry is looking at the problem of how to maintain a sustainable and efficient production. This study specified a stochastic production frontier function to estimate potential milkfish farm output and efficiency by using...

Abstract:: In this paper we analyse different econometric procedures of technical efficiency to estimate fishing capacity. These procedures are then applied to the purse seine fishery located in the Gulf of Cádiz. The target species of this fishery has changed quite a lot over the past few years. It used to...

Abstract:: Employing an experimental approach, we examine whet her the uncertainty on the fish/outputs price affects the choice of vessel sizes of fishers under an ITQ scheme. Our experiment consists of two parts. In the first part, subjects answer ten questions. The purpose is to extract the risk preference of each...

Abstract:: Designing economic incentives to achieve a desired policy outcome from a fishery could be helped by exploring it within a game-theoretic context. We use Baltic salmon fishery to show how complex interactions between national fleets, offshore and coastal fishermen, and migratory stock dynamics can be analysed with a bio-economic model...

Abstract:: In this paper efficiency gains and associated cost reductions from increases in quota leased or traded are estimated for the South East Trawl Fishery (SETF), using Australian Fisheries Management Authority logbook data and Australian Bureau of Agricultural and Resource Economics survey data on 47 vessels in an unbalanced panel data...

Abstract:: In this paper, the estimate of the productive efficiency for some Italian fleet segments is proposed. The estimate is based on a Stochastic Frontier Production (SFP) function and a Data Envelopment Analysis frontier (DEA) using micro data of fishing vessels. The essential random nature of the fishing processes under consideration...
