Creator:: Sharp, Basil and Jeffs, Andrew
Abstract:: The scope for fishing firms operating in an output controlled fishery, with tradable rights, and facing world prices, to augment profit is limited inter alia to a search for alternative input configurations that lower harvesting costs. This paper provides evidence of technical change in the New Zealand rock lobster fishery....

Creator:: Flaaten, Ola
Abstract:: The aim of this paper is to assist teaching undergraduate students how to analyse the issue of fish stock investment. The mathematical prerequisites are a basic knowledge of calculus. Both discrete and continuos time frameworks are used. To fish down or to build up a fish stock takes time, and...

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...

Creator:: Pascoe, Sean, Coglan, Louisa, and Cattermoul, Ben
Abstract:: Differences in technical efficiency of fishing vessels are often attributed to skipper skill and differences in technology. While the later can be defined in terms of the technology employed, the former is more difficult to quantify. In this paper, the contribution of technology and skipper characteristics (e.g. level of education,...

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:: 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:: Recent increases in the volume of canning grade tuna caught in the Western and Central Pacific Ocean (WCPO) has led to concern about the increasing catching capacity of the fleet of purse seine vessels operating in the fishery. In this paper Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) is used to examine the...

Abstract:: Economic performance indicators are needed in order to improve fisheries policy in Vietnam. The research project “Revenues and Costs of Fishing Vessels in the Nha Trang Area” has been established to meet these needs. A questionnaire about technical characteristics and economic data of vessel and gear in use in the...

Abstract:: This paper is a study of the production technology and relative efficiency of vessels harvesting tiger prawns in the northern prawn fishery (NPF), one of Australia’s largest and most lucrative fishing areas. It is based on a unbalanced panel data set of 228 observations among thirty-seven vessels for the years...

Abstract:: NOAA’s National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) was a key participant in the FAO technical and policy-level consultations of 1991-1999 that led to the FAO International Plan of Action for the Management of Fishing Capacity. The U.S. Plan of Action includes a commitment to prepare regular assessments of overcapacity in federally-managed...
