Abstract:: The long desired self-sufficiency in national and grass-root fish production is momentous to food security in Nigeria. The nature and patterns of feed utilization among fish farming households will provide a strategy to raise demand for local feeds thereby raising national feed production vis-à-vis reducing Nigeria’s import dependency on feeds....

Abstract:: This study examines the willingness of canoe owners and crew members to participate in an insurance scheme in Ghana. A total of 386 canoe owners and 164 crew from four (4) coastal regions and the inland lake areas were sampled. Data was collected through semi-structured questionnaires on socio-economic characteristics, canoe...

Abstract:: Skipjack migrates from the equatorial region to the high latitude. Skipjack fishery is mainly exercised by the purse seine vessels. The stock evaluation of the skipjack is plentiful. However, in 2009, the catch of the Japanese offshore skipjack fishery declined. WCPFC Scientific Committee sixth regular session summary report mentioned that...

Abstract:: The purpose of this study is aimed at developing a simple bioeconomic model of the Namibian rock lobster fishery, with the main objective being to incorporate economics into fisheries management in order to estimate the potential economic benefits that could accrue to the fishery given efficient management. The complex nature...

Creator:: Smith, Martin D.
Abstract:: Although many fisheries around the world have long required explicit licensing for fishery participants, the use of limited entry licensing to control fishing effort has become a common practice in the last two decades. In contrast to Individual Fishing Quotas (IFQs), limited entry is only a step towards rights-based management....

Creator:: Faig, Amanda D.
Abstract:: Ecologists warn that the rapid evolution occurring as a result of high-intensity commercial fishing could have potentially disastrous economic and ecological effects. The evolution of economically relevant life-history traits in fish, which can occur due to the harvesting pressure from commercial fisheries, can irreversibly diminish fisheries yields and ecological services....

Creator:: Carter, David and Letson, David
Abstract:: Recent results from a vector error correction (VEC) analysis indicate that El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) events appear to affect both red snapper landings and effort in the Gulf of Mexico headboat fishery (Carter and Letson 2005). A key finding is that the outcome of policy changes can vary depending on...

Abstract:: Sablefish (Anoplopoma fimbria) are distributed from Japan to Baja California. Alaska is the world’s principal supplier of sablefish with the majority of commercial landings occurring in the Gulf of Alaska and the Aleutian Islands. This demersal, long-lived fish is in one of Alaska’s highest value commercial fisheries. In terms of...

Creator:: Castilla Espino, David, García Ordaz, Félix, and Sharp, Basil M. H.
Abstract:: A wide range of fisheries are managed using vessel catch limits combined with different kinds of effort restrictions. This management framework is expected to have desirable consequences for the bioeconomic sustainability of fisheries. When appropriately implemented this approach produces outcomes that are similar to those associated with individual fishing quotas....

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...
