  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Barometer Survey for the Economic Outlook of Finnish Fishery Enterprises Author: Honkanen, Asmo, Ahvonen, Anssi, Veneranta, Lari Fishery barometer surveys economic prospects and trends of fishery enterprises in Finland. The enterprises are divided into fishing, aquaculture, processing and the wholesale or retail trade. Since year 2000 the enterprises have been asked to evaluate their economic parameters, such as financial standing, turnover and investments. The present situation is compared with the previous 12 months and with expectations for the coming 12 months. The aim is to collect data that are reliable and comparable in the long term. The survey population consists of all fishery sector enterprises on the register of Statistics Finland, i.e. 850-1000 firms every year. The net sample has been 300-400 and the response rate about 80%. The sample has been allocated to fixed quotas to ensure enough observations of all strata. The development and relevance of the barometer are discussed more closely in the paper.

  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Fishery Industry' s Confidence towards the near Future in Different Levels of Production Chain in Finland Author: Honkanen, Asmo, Ahvonen, Anssi Year: 2001 The idea of this study is to follow general economic fluctuations and try to foresee how confident fishery industry is towards the near future and simultaneously indicate the relative development in the near past. A trend-and-confidence indicator describing the overall economic trend and expectations of enterprises was calculated from the means of balance figures of questions concerning change in financial standing, turnover and investments of an enterprise. The results can be divided into fishing, aquaculture, processing, wholesale and retail trade, i.e. to the whole production-processing-commerce chain. In February 2000, the confidence towards coming 12 months in the Finnish fishery enterprises was encouraged. The only sector that had deteriorated during the past year was fishing, however the outlook of fishing for the coming year was more promising. The results are based on a sample of about 300 enterprises representing a survey population of about 1070 fishery enterprises. The reliability of the results is discussed.

  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Future Threats and Opportunities in Finnish Fisheries - A Study to Build up a Regular Follow-up Data Collection Author: Honkanen, Asmo, Ahvonen, Anssi Year: 2001 The transition from a producer-oriented to a consumer-oriented society has created numerous new demands for food products. New food trends, such as lightness, safety and healthiness, as well as the ecological aspects of products concern fish, too. The outlook of the entire production chain needs to be clarified to enable producers to react to new consumer demands. The general idea in this study was to analyse consumers' and producers' opinions regarding fish products and the production environment simultaneously. Items measured were future threats and opportunities in the fisheries sector and fish consumption habits. A pilot survey was conducted in 1999. Collection of countrywide data was started at February 2000, when the sample size was expanded to include 2000 consumers and 350 enterprises. Data were collected with computer-based phone interviews. The results on enterprises are divided into fishing, aquaculture, processing, wholesale and retail trade. In this study the sample of consumers are approached as a whole. Both fisheries enterprises and consumers outlooks towards Finnish fisheries were rather confident. The outlooks for essential threats and opportunities inside the fisheries sector were quite unanimous. The reliability of the results is discussed.
