The Economics of Salmon Aquaculture
Salmon aquaculture is growing at an enormous rate in countries such as Norway, Scotland, Ireland, Japan, Canada and Chile, with the development spreading to other areas including Australia, New Zealand and the United States. Yet little systematic data and economic analyses are available with respect to the impact this development has on world salmon markets and the economic viability of the industry. This book has been written to satisfy the need for a text on the economics of salmon aquaculture. It describes salmon aquaculture production and analyses its impact on salmon markets. Economic theory is adapted to the particularities of intensive aquaculture, and appropriate management models are developed and applied to salmon aquaculture.
The Economics of Salmon Aquaculture
First published in 1990, The Economics of Salmon Aquaculture was the first book to systematically analyse the salmon aquaculture industry, from both a market and production perspective. Since publication of the first edition of this book, the salmon aquaculture industry has grown at a phenomenal rate, with salmon now being consumed in more than 100 countries worldwide. This second edition of a very popular and successful book brings the reader right up to date with all the major current issues pertaining to salmon aquaculture. Commencing with an overview of the production process in aquaculture, the following chapters provide in-depth coverage of the sources of the world’s supply of salmon...
Essays on the Economics of Migratory Fish Stocks
This publication contains ten essays written by prominent natural resource economists and mathematicians on the economics of harvesting from migratory fish stocks. Five of the essays deal with the analytical aspects of the subject. These essays are concerned with questions of optimal harvesting paths, stability and the specific problems that arise when fish migrations provide several nations with periodic exclusive access to the fish stock. The other five essays are empirical. They feature case studies of fisheries from actual migratory fish stocks. The publication provides a valuable introduction to an important subject that has been largely ignored in the fisheries economics literature. It describes the nature of the problem and derives several important results of a general nature.
The Economics and Management of World Fisheries
Over the past several decades there has been increasing interest in, and concern about, the economics of the world's capture fishery resources. Massive amounts of resource rent are being lost because of inadequate management and major rebuilding of fishery resources is called for. This book draws together the latest economic theory of the management of these resources, at both the national and the international levels, and highlights areas where further research is urgently required. The emphasis is on world capture fisheries, rather than fisheries of specific regions, and examples are drawn upon from both developed and developing countries. It combines economic theory and empirical testing ...

The Economics and Management of World Fisheries
Capture fisheries make contributions to the world economy that are below their potential. Many of the world's capture fishery resources have been overexploited with some facing collapse.

Report of the Expert Consultation on Identifying, Assessing and Reporting on Subsidies in the Fishing Industry
The consultation reviewed an FAO guide for identifying, assessing and reporting on subsidies. It recommended that FAO support Members in undertaking studies based on the guide. The experts considered it important that available methodologies be used to assess impacts flowing from actions taken by recipients of subsidies on environment, trade, economic growth and social conditions.
Planning for aquaculture diversification: the importance of climate change and other drivers
FAO Fisheries and Aquaculture Proceedings These proceedings, from a workshop convened by FAO and World Fisheries Trust (Canada), summarize diversification successes and opportunities in all major world regions, and identify general principles to guide diversification in aquaculture.The document includes an assessment of main strategies and future steps, not only in terms of purely economic costs but also in development costs, including evaluation and mitigation of environmental and social impacts and establishment of species-specific biosecurity frameworks.
