The official catch records generally are carried out in the landing operations. There three categories of fishing that are not included in landings; illegal, unreported and unregulated catch (IUU) and are considered like lack of information. It is necessary, to consider these categories of fishing to know the true impact...
Consolidates existing knowledge on the political economy of property rights in natural resources and integrates lessons learned from developmental aid and fisheries and non-fishery case studies to provide a methodological approach for future case study work on fisheries reform. Objective: Link fisheries reform strategies with in-country political economy conditions.
According to conventional economic wisdom the economically more efficient technology will always outcompete the less efficient. This hypothesis has usually been taken to hold for the exploitation of common pool renewable natural resources such as fish stocks. This paper claims that, while this is not necessarily false, it may be...
In several countries, cost recovery and/or rent collection (CRRC) has become integral to fishery management. This paper will examine CRRC from three perspectives: neo-classical economic efficiency, equity, and public choice. Partial equilibrium economic efficiency arguments include incentives for industry to implement (or lobby for) efficient delivery of management services. On...
The fishery resources in the Gulf of Thailand have been subjected to excessive levels of fishing effort since perhaps as long as two to three decades. This has caused a change in catch composition with a higher share of short-lived species. The influence of this change on the value of...
With the decline of main predators whose habitat is confined to continental platforms, the growth in fishing demand and new technologies has caused the expansion of fisheries towards areas which are increasingly deeper. Globally, the quantification and evolution of catches worldwide as well the expansion of deep-sea fisheries have been...
We analyze the financial technical feasibility of an assembly would have a productive activity in the Lagoon of Pueblo Viejo, Veracruz, Mexico, based on the exploitation of the American oyster (Crassostrea virginica) fishery resource, for project evaluation: Implications for the marketing of fishery and aquaculture products: oyster case "by the...
The UN Law of the Sea of 1982 assigned rights and responsibilities to the
fishery resources within 200 nautical miles of the coast (i.e.,the Exclusive
Economic Zones: EEZs) to the adjacent maritime countries. A key
responsibility is the requirement that these countries manage their marine
living resources sustainably through time...
Management actions considered by regional fishery management councils
can generate significant impacts on the magnitude and distribution of the
economic and sociocultural well-being of stakeholders. It is therefore
important that policy analysts be able to account for the relevant parties
whose economic well-being is affected by fisheries and derive estimates...
Many millions of people throughout Vietnam depend in full or part on the country's aquatic resources for food, livelihood and employment. The fisheries and aquaculture sectors are significant contributors to the
economy of Vietnam. With increasing population pressure and the development of more effective (and/or destructive) fishing gears and practices,...
