  • Long-Term Health Effects, Risk Perceptions, and Consumption Patterns for Aquacultured Seafood

    Creator:
    Uchida, Hirotsugu, Roheim, Cathy, and Johnston, Roberty
    Abstract:
    For US aquaculture industry, primary factors influencing their competitiveness are consumers' perceptions of long-term health risks related to domestic farmed seafood consumption. The public is often particularly sensitive to food risk scares, and can often dominate other considerations in food choice and lead to large impacts on consumption and the...

  • Health Insurance Coverage and Commercial Fishing in North Carolina

    Creator:
    Crosson, Scott
    Abstract:
    Commercial fishing is generally hazardous, but some types of commercial fishing are more dangerous than other types. Since much of the fishing industry is composed of small family-owned businesses, commercial fishermen have to rely on the private health insurance markets, health insurance offered through a landside job, spouses’ plans, social...

  • American consumers’ eating patterns of fish and knowledge of fish rich in omega-3 fatty acids

    Creator:
    Kudo, Koei and Martin, Anna B.
    Abstract:
    Research on omega-3 fatty acids of marine origin consistently indicates the value of these substances to human health, while seafood processors face the challenge of creating value-added products rich in omega-3 compounds that consumers identify as being both healthful and tasty. In particular, albacore tuna is considered to have large...

  • An integrated epidemiological-economic model of sea lice control in aquaculture: A system dynamics approach

    Creator:
    Hamza, Kanar
    Abstract:
    Different methodologies have been used in modeling the epidemiology and economics of aquaculture diseases, including input-output models, benefit-cost analysis, linear programming, simple spreadsheetbased models, compartment models based on differential equations, and spatial models. Despite the advantages that these models provide, there is a need to develop a more integrated approach...

  • Capturing decision-making tradeoffs between government and industry: a bi-level programming approach

    Creator:
    Rich, Karl
    Abstract:
    Disease control decisions at a sector level often reflect different types of goals and incentives between various stakeholders. While government may pursue policy objectives to eliminate disease at any cost, for example, the success of such initiatives relies on the capability and desire of industry to adopt such measures as...

  • Broadening the Scope in Fisheries Governance with a Wellbeing Lens

    Creator:
    Chuenpagdee, Ratana, Charles, Anthony, and Johnson, Derek
    Abstract:
    Decades of social science research has shown that fisheries, particularly small-scale, are integral to community wellbeing. They contribute to food security, men’s, women’s, and children’s livelihoods, health, community identity, and social cohesion. These contributions need to be well-defined and contextualized, as well as differentiated between fishing sectors, for better fisheries...

  • Analyzing the Economic Effects of Aquatic Animal Disease Control Regime in Korea

    Creator:
    Pyo, Hee-Dong and Lee, Sang-Go
    Abstract:
    The success or failure of aquaculture heavily depends on how effectively to manage aquatic animal diseases. In order to analyze the economic effects of aquatic animal disease control, the specific factors and magnitudes of benefits and costs are identified with and without the proposed project for the disease control. These...

  • Environmental Tradeoffs Between Aquaculture and Capture Fisheries

    Creator:
    Wada, Nikolas, Delgado, Christopher, and Ahmed, Mahfuzuddin
    Abstract:
    The incorporation of fisheries commodities into the International Food Policy Research Institute’s (IFPRI) International Model for Policy Analysis of Agricultural Commodities and Trade (IMPACT) model suggests that demand for fisheries products will rise faster than supply over the next two decades, and that fishery commodity prices will rise relative to...

  • Do all the answers lie within (The Community)? Fishing Rights and Marine Conservation

    Creator:
    Gasalla, Maria
    Abstract:
    The role of small-scale fisheries in developing countries has been widely discussed in the fisheries and‚ “commons”‚ literature. However, in the conservationist debate, even small-scale fishing has often been seen as a potential evil that indeed threatens ecosystem health and should be broadly and rapidly eliminated. Besides the global commitments...
