The fishery sector is important in Nigeria’s development matrix. The sector not only
provides employment for the citizens but also contributes more than 40% of animal protein consumed by average Nigerian. However, over the years the role of providing animal protein for the populace dwindled to the extent that fish...
The Philippines, located within the Coral Triangle which represents the epicenter of marine life abundance and diversity, is the source of groupers traded in Hongkong, China, Singapore and other countries. Grouper production in the country (19.7 th mt), gross value (USD 5.8 mil) and trade value (USD 14.4 mil) is...
Aquaculture is increasingly important for the future supply of fish because of steadily increasing demand while supply from fisheries is stagnating. In the EU aquaculture production has grown strongly in some countries, such as Spain and Greece, but was flat at a low level in others, such as in Germany,...
This paper examines the relationship between U.S. aquaculturists‟ intended actions to expand production capacity abroad and the factors influencing their choices. These factors include aquaculturists‟ perceptions of market conditions; regulatory climate; property rights; government leadership; and the comparative advantages of U.S. aquaculture, as well as the demographic characteristics of aquaculturists...
The aquaculture sector is uniquely placed to complement production from the stagnating capture fisheries sector and it has advantages in terms of controllable production characteristics. However, aquaculture poses undeniable economic, environmental and social challenges that may be poorly evaluated or inadequately addressed within current policy frameworks. In such cases, the...
Fisheries constitute a major productive sector in Latin America and the Caribbean. This sector generates income, provides employment, and makes a significant contribution to food security and the generation of foreign exchange. With most fishery resources fully exploited or depleted, opportunities for fishery development lie primarily in restoring depleted
stocks...
En quelques années, l'Indonésie est devenue un des premiers pays producteurs de crevettes. L'extension et l'intensification rapide des élevages a des répercussions socio-économiques et écologiques majeures. Après un pic de 130.000 tonnes en 1992, la production est tombée à 100 000 tonnes en 1993. Depuis, le développement de nouveaux sites...

In this presentation, the author explores the research question - "Under what conditions can farmer-owned co-ops seize control of breeding and contribute to genetic diversity?" He uses case studies of breeding strategies in Norwegian husbandry and aquaculture.
Seaweed farming based primarily on the culture of Kappaphycus and Eucheuma species has grown significantly in the Philippines and Indonesia over the last two decades, with growth also taking place at a smaller scale in Tanzania, India and a few other developing countries. Unlike other forms of aquaculture, seaweed farming...
Inland fish farming is still a mystery for the economic development of Africa. Many African countries especially in the south of the Sahara do not largely practice inland fish farming for commercial purposes. This is because many Africans still believe in their economic redemption through crop production, grants and or...

In this paper, we estimated the costs and benefits of keeping pension fishers in the community. 34% of the 200 thousand fishers in Japan are over the age of 65. Since the fishers over 65 are pensioners, their fishery income is an additional source of livelihood. The average yearly income...
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...
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...
Disease is a primary threat to the continued growth in salmon aquaculture due to its extensive effects on the sector. Aquaculture farms suffer the most direct and immediate economic losses through reduction in growth, low feed efficiency and market prices, increasing mortality rates, and expenditures on prevention and treatment measures....
Namibia's aquaculture Industry is comparatively young but of recent it has picked up momentum. Previously, its importance was neglected. This was not just due to the then thriving marine resources, but also to inexperience in fish farming and fish consumption culture in most inland Namibians. According to Namibia's Vision 2030,...
