Abstract
  • This paper considers the modelling of aggregate price and quantity of aquaculture production in the European countries since mid-80s. In general, the evolution of aquaculture production only considers the evolution of total value and total weight. The heterogeneity of aquaculture production is neglected. As a consequence, the unit value ('price') of cultured fish seems to be increasing due to the increasing trend towards more valued fish species. The right way to aggregate heterogeneous goods in economics is by using index numbers. In general, it is observed that the quantity indices increase much more than the weight of cultured fish. The trend for price indices is very different between countries, but in the EU-15 as an aggregate is decreasing, contrary to the trend with unit values.
