  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Investigating Salmon Price Volatility Author: Sikveland, Marius, Oglend, Atle An understanding of the structure of price volatility is of great interest since this is a major contributor to economic risk in the salmon industry. The volatility process in salmon prices was analyzed based on weekly price data from 1995 to 2007. The Generalized Autoregressive Conditional Heteroskedasticity (GARCH) model was used to test for volatility clustering and persistence of volatility for prices. We find evidence for and discuss the degree of persistence and reversion in the salmon price volatility. We further find that the usual assumption of an independent zero mean normally distributed error term is not satisfactory when describing the salmon price process.

This paper focuses on estimates of demand functions for Norwegian salmon products. Log-linear functions are used to construct the model. The major objective of the research is to define the own-price elasticity of demand, income elasticity of demand, and cross-price elasticity of demand in the context of the salmon industry. The research findings are hoped to bring some added values to the improved teaching and educational training at Nha Trang University, in addition to providing salmon importers in Vietnam with scientific foundations for making relevant, appropriate decisions in the fast-moving economic integration process. A further step is to compare these findings with those from recent studies cited in literature about theoretical and empirical dimensions of salmon demand.

  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: The Halo Effects of Norwegian Salmon Promotion on EU Atlantic Salmon Demand Author: Myrland, Oystein, Xie, Jinghua The Differential Almost Ideal Demand System (AIDS) is estimated to exam the direct and spillover responses for salmon promotion conducted by the Norwegian Seafood Export Council in EU Atlantic salmon market. The model allows the advertising effect on demand curve to shift and rotate simultaneously. EU demand is segmented by country of origin, namely Norway, Chile, United Kingdom, Canada, and Rest of World. Results suggest that Norwegian advertising shifted its own demand curve rightward and curve of Rest of World leftward and counterclockwise rotated the curve of UK. The advertising-induced demand curve rotation is found to be important for marginal benefit-cost ratio and producer surplus measurement. A tiny change of price elasticity causes a substantial change of marginal benefit-cost ratio and a not tiny change of producer surplus.

The agreement specifies an increase in the export levy on Norwegian salmon entering the EU from 0.75% to 3.00% ad valorem. The proceeds of the levy are to be used by the Norwegian Seafood Export Council in cooperation with the Scottish Salmon Board and the Irish Salmon Growers Association for generic advertising of atlantic salmon in the European markets, the so called Pan-European Salmon Marketing Campaign. Over the Agreement’s five-year life, an estimated $30 million is expected to be invested in salmon promotion in Europe. Despite the relatively large sums being spent on these and related programs, little is known about the effects of generic advertising on consumers purchase frequency. A purpose of this research is to contribute to the understanding of these effects by examining in detail the generic advertising of atlantic salmon in Germany and France in 1998/99. By using a recursive econometric model linking awareness of the advertising in the first stage to the level of at-home consumption of salmon in the final stage the economic impact of the Pan-European campaign is investigated.

Year: 2001 This paper provides an analysis of the market potential for organic salmon, primarily in the European Union. There has been a substantial growth in the demand for organic food products in industrialised countries in the course of the past decade. Legislation for organic production is now being extended to aquaculture, and limited quantities of certified organic salmon have been marketed in the European Union. We examine the experience gained in other organic food markets, and draw some conclusions from these markets with relevance to salmon. Organic salmon fills a dietary need among organic consumers, but at the same time it has some characteristics which may present obstacles to successful marketing. We analysed price premiums for organic salmon compared to conventional salmon. Positive price premiums were found, but it is hard to predict how they will evolve when the supply of organic salmon is expanded. Experience from other organic foods that are supplied in large volumes suggests that it may be possible to obtain price premiums even with substantially higher production.

  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Policy Conundrum: Restoring Wild Salmon to the Pacific Northwest Author: Lackey, Robert T. Year: 2001 Restoring wild salmon runs to the Pacific Northwest is technically challenging, politically nasty, and socially divisive. Pa st restoration efforts have been largely unsuccessful. Society’s failure to reverse the continuing decline of wild salmon has the characteristics of a policy conundrum: nearly everyone supports, abstractly at least, restoring salmon runs; considerable public and private resources have been devoted to their restoration; but society collectively remains evidently unwilling to make the painful decisions clearly necessary to arrest their decline. The salmon policy conundrum is characterized by competing societal priorities being adjudicated in a political environment where few are willing to acknowledge publicly the future consequences of prior de facto policy choices. Decisions already made have greatly circumscribed the status of wild salmon in the Pacific Northwest through at least the next several decades. Barring a near wholesale reversal of many of society’s previous decisions (and apparent priorities), and allowing for considerable year-to-year and decade-to-decade variation in run size due in part to oscillations in climate and oceanic conditions, I conclude that through the twenty-first century, many, perhaps most, stocks of wild salmon in the Pacific Northwest likely will remain at their current low levels or continue to decline in spite of current protection and restoration efforts.

The management of salmon fisheries is complicated by the combination of mixed and single stock fisheries. Thus, the country of origin has sovereign control over harvest of a salmon stock only at the last steps of the gauntlet. This paper addresses the stability of an international fisheries agreement on the Baltic salmon. This setting is modeled through a coalition game in the partition function form with four asymmetric players. Countries payoffs depend both on commercial fishery’s profits and net benefits from recreational harvest. Moreover, the country of origin must ensure that each of the salmon stocks achieve or maintain a sustainable size. The economic sub-model is calibrated using commercial fisheries statistics and existing non-market valuation studies. The underlying population dynamics model accounts for 15 salmon stocks and it is used in the actual stock assessment. The results indicate that by considering economic aspects of recreational fisheries it is possible to stabilize the grand coalition. However, the cooperative strategies of the grand coalition do not ensure biologically sound harvesting of all salmon stocks.

Therefore, color plays a decisive role when evaluating the quality of the product at point-of-sale. The colors resulting from the deposition of carotenoids are considered to be of significant behavioral importance to animals. However, in addition to their coloration properties, the carotenoids have major biological functions. The species-specific pink flesh color provided only by astaxanthin has always been associated with salmonids and has differentiated the salmonids from other fish species. Studies have shown that when it comes to making purchasing decisions about salmon, consumers have stated that color is very important. Consumers perceive that redder salmon is equated to these characteristics: fresher, better flavor, higher quality and higher price.

A structural break is expected in the spring/summer 1997 because restrictions on price and quantum on Norwegian salmon was introduced at this time. A test for cointegration suggests that there is a long term relationship between prices of salmon in the EU and US before and after the break. A Chow test reveals that that there is a distinct structural break in May 1997. The study can and will be improved in subsequent studies by using better tests for cointegration.

  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Ninety Years of Trolling Author: Heikkila, Paul Year: 2001 Trolling (the use of lures behind a moving boat) for salmon has probably been practiced for thousands of years with oars and sails. But it was not until the advent of reliable gasoline engines and increased regulations on the estuary gillnet fisheries of San Francisco Bay and the Columbia River that trolling became a commercial venture off the West Coast. About 1910, gillnetters on San Francisco Bay and slightly later on the Columbia River began putting lures behind their gillnet vessels and fishing in the open ocean during gillnet closures. The fishery primarily did, and still does, target Chinook salmon (King, Yee, Spring) and to a lesser extent Coho (Silvers) and on some years, Pink salmon. When a salmon troller refers to a fish as a “salmon” he was always referring to, and still does, Chinook.

  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Climate, Uncertainty and the Pacific Salmon Treaty: Insights on the Harvest Management Game Author: Munro, Gordon, Tyedmers, Peter, McKelvey, Robert, Miller, Kathleen Year: 2001 Pacific Salmon are anadromous fish that cross state and international boundaries in their oceanic migrations. Fish spawned in the rivers of one jurisdiction are vulnerable to harvest in other jurisdictions. The rocky history of attempts by the United States and Canada to cooperatively manage their respective salmon harvests suggests that environmental variability may complicate the management of such shared resources. In recent years, an extended breakdown in cooperation was fueled by strongly divergent trends in Alaskan and southern salmon abundance, and a consequent change in the balance of each nation s interceptions of salmon spawned in the other nation s rivers. While several natural and anthropogenic factors contributed to these trends, there is considerable evidence that changing ocean conditions played a significant role. The period of high productivity in Alaska contributed to increased Alaskan interceptions of B.C. salmon at a time when Pacific Northwest coho and chinook could least withstand retaliatory actions on the part of the Canadian fleet. Only recently, has the mounting crisis led to a fundamental shift in the approach taken by the two nations to determine their respective salmon-harvest shares. On June 30, 1999, Canada and the U.S. signed an agreement which, if successfully implemented, may lay the groundwork for a more sustainable cooperative management regime. However, there are many unanswered questions regarding the viability and sustainability of the new Pacific Salmon Treaty Agreement. This paper draws lessons from the recent period of turmoil to identify strengths and weaknesses in the new abundance-based management approach, and to suggest avenues for further negotiations to secure more rational management of Pacific salmon resources.

Escaped Farmed Vs Wild Atlantic Salmon Author: Liu, Yajie, Olaussen, Jon Olaf The paper explores to what extent escaped farmed salmon from fish farms affect the willingness-to-pay for recreational fishing of Atlantic salmon in Norwegian rivers. The aim is to quantify the potential externality from escaped farmed species working through the demand for the natural stock of congeners. While the biological and genetic effects of escaped farmed salmon have been widely acknowledged, the potential economic consequences have received little attention. This study is a first attempt to close this gap by analysing the direct effect on the recreational use values. The empirical analysis is based on the results from a contingent valuation survey conducted in Norway. It is found that the presence of escaped farmed salmon in Norwegian rivers may have severe economic consequences on the willingness-to-pay for recreational fishing.

Emergy-emdollar evaluation of salmon pen culture is presented in this paper as an example of the calculations and interpretation. The procedure evaluated the estuarine contribution as well as those made by the pen operators. Like other environmental products, salmon contribute more emdollars to the economy than are recognized with market values. The buyer receives 2 times more emdollars than is paid in dollars. After the salmon are processed and used by the consumers, more emergy values are added directly and indirectly from the fuels and other resources operating the rest of the economy. In the United States, 7 emdollars from the outside economy are attracted to each emdollar of local environmental product. The solar transformity of salmon = emergy/energy = 1.7 x 107 solar emjoules/joule, a high value compared to most fish.

In the United States, 7 emdollars from the outside economy are attracted to each emdollar of local environmental product. The solar transformity of salmon = emergy/energy = 1.7 x 107 solar emjoules/joule, a high value compared to most fish. A similar value was obtained from evaluating the natural salmon life cycle in the Umpqua R Close

The paper addresses the conflict between the conservation of the formerly endangered species and professional fishermen whose livelihood is also regulated by fisheries management. We develop a bioeconomic model that accounts for the age-structure of Atlantic salmon and grey seal populations. In order to reach a social optimum, we maximize the discounted net present value taking into account the seal-induced losses through a damage function. The socially optimal salmon stock size, salmon catch and fishing effort is studied under different management schemes aimed at mitigating the seal-salmon conflict. The results suggest that technological adaptation would effectively reduce the cause of the conflict, while a technology subsidy encouraging such adaptation shifts the economic responsibility from individual fishermen towards a broader public.

  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Market Interactions between Aquaculture and Common-Property Fisheries: Examining the Empirical Evidence from the Bristol Bay Sockeye Salmon Fishery in Alaska Author: Valderrama, Diego, Anderson, James The impressive growth of world aquaculture has led to profound transformations in the economic structure of several capture fisheries. Evidence from the Alaska salmon fisheries supports this argument as a connection has been suggested between the recent trends of declining ex-vessel prices and the rapid development of salmon farming elsewhere in the world. In Bristol Bay, home of the largest sockeye salmon runs in the globe, participation in the limited-entry fishery has declined by approximately 20% since 2001. Likewise, permit market values have plummeted to historic low levels, with economic conditions not likely to improve significantly in the mid-term future. To examine this problem, we develop a formal analytical framework for the study of market interactions between a limited-entry fishery and an aquaculture sector. We adapt the model of regulated open-access developed by Homans and Wilen to examine the implications of aquaculture development on the actions of fishermen and the regulatory sector in a restricted-access setting. Results indicate that the emergence of a low-cost aquaculture sector brings about important structural changes in the restricted-access fishery, rendering limited-entry regulations irrelevant as participation rates decline due to the falling prices. An important implication is that, despite the limited-entry constraint, the fishery moves to an institutional arrangement closer to regulated open access, with resource rents drastically reduced. Model predictions are compared with the empirical evidence available from the Bristol Bay sockeye fishery. The advantages of cooperative management relative to the current competitive structure of the fishery are highlighted.

Year: 2001 Rising consumer concern over intensive food production issues has resulted in an increase in demand for organic alternatives to a wide variety of foods including fruit and vegetables, meat and poultry. More recently, there has also been considerable interest in the marketing of more environmentally-friendly supplies of fish, including those from farmed production systems. 'Organic' salmon has featured in the forefront of this market innovation, although it is arguably more problematic to apply traditional organic principles to salmon production. The term 'organic salmon' contains at least three different components - animal welfare, chemical use and sustainability, the most controversial issue being animal welfare. Of fundamental importance is the extent to which this term can usefully be applied to salmon and, more importantly the extent to which consumers perceive animal welfare to be an important issue in salmon farming. This paper reports on some results based upon consumer focus groups in 5 countries (France, Germany, Norway, Spain and UK) and considers a number of issues relating to fish welfare and organic salmon production more generally. As the food market continues its seemingly relentless march to greener pastures it is suggested that this study may help identify some implications for future aquatic food product development decisions.

  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Atlantic Salmon Fishery in the Baltic Sea - A Case of Trivial Cooperation Author: Levontin, Polina, Kulmala, Soile, Lindroos, Marko, Pintassilgo, Pedro This paper analyses the management of the Atlantic salmon stocks in the Baltic Sea through a coalition game in partition function form. The signs of economic and biological overexploitation of these salmon stocks over the last two decades indicate that cooperation among the harvesting countries, under the European Union's Common Fisheries Policy (CFP), has been ostensible. Combining a twostage game of four asymmetric players with a disaggregated bioeconomic model, we conclude that cooperation under the present Relative Stability Principle (RSP) is not a stable outcome. In contrast, the equilibrium of the game is full noncooperation. The paper also addresses the possibility of enhancing cooperation through more flexible fishing strategies. The results indicate that partial cooperation is stable under specific sharing schemes. It is also shown that substantial economic benefits could have been realised by reallocating the fishing effort, without compromising stock sustainability.

We specify a stochastic frontier production model with agglomeration indexes included in both the frontier production function and the technical inefficiency model. The frontier model is estimated on a rich panel data set with 2,738 observations on 577 farms. Our results confirm the importance of agglomeration externalities for the productivity and technical inefficiency of salmon farms. Both frontier output and technical efficiency increase with increasing regional industry size. There is a negative relationship between overall productivity and regional farm density, suggesting the presence of negative biological congestion externalities. These results have implications for the Norwegian government’s regulation of the industry, since the government, to a large extent, has determined the spatial distribution of salmon production through a licence system.

Year: 2001 Some years ago, the U.S. Dept. of Agriculture undertook a study of the nutrient profile of the leading species of cultivated and wild fish and shellfish. Some data from that work were published, but information on fatty acids was not included. This paper presents data on the fat, cholesterol and major fatty acid content of cultivated and wild channel catfish (Ictalurus punctatus), rainbow trout (Salmo gairdneri), and coho salmon (Oncorynchus kisutch). Two samples of each species were obtained from the wild at two different seasons, reflecting differences in spawning status; three samples of cultivated channel catfish and rainbow trout plus two of coho salmon were obtained at peak season to coincide with one of the sampling times of the wild samples. Analyses were conducted on raw and cooked fillets. Fatty acids were determined by gas-liquid chromatography. Fat content of cultivated catfish and salmon ranged from 2.5-5 times that of wild samples; fat levels in wild and cultivated trout were similar. Monounsaturates predominated in cultivated catfish and salmon but not trout. Differences in fatty acid profile between wild and cultivated fish were greatest among polyunsaturates; linoleic acid was substantially higher in all cultivated samples than in wild fish. Omega-3 fatty acid levels were related to species and were higher in cultivated than wild samples owing to higher fat content. Data do not support the notion that wild fish are higher in omega-3 fatty acids than cultivated fish. Title: Fatty Acids in Cultivated and Wild Fish Author: Nettleton, Joyce A.

  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Commercial Fishing License Limitation in the State of Alaska: A Controversial System of Grandfather Rights Author: Twomley, Bruce Year: 2001 After two failed attempts to establish limited entry in its salmon fisheries,iii pursuant to legislation adopted by the Alaska Legislature in 1973, Alaska placed its primary salmon fisheries under limitation by 1975. Alaska persisted in seeking limited entry largely in response to declining salmon resources coupled with increasing levels of participation. Alaska’s system limited the number of gear licenses to a maximum number which must be equal to or greater than the highest number of units of gear present in a particular fishery during the four years prior to limitation. With all prior participants eligible to apply, the number of eligible applicants was generally far greater than the maximum number. Under an elaborate system of grandfather rights, permanent entry permits have been awarded to those fishers who demonstrated the most dependence upon a particular fishery, as measured by their past participation and economic dependence. Eligible fishers may continue to fish until there is a final determination on their applications. Permanent entry permits are, for the most part, freely transferable and inheritable, subject to some restriction (for example, permits may neither be leased nor pledged as security for a debt). Salmon fishers helped design Alaska’s program for Alaska’s salmon fleet, which consisted largely of individual fishers who owned and operated their own vessels. The program achieved a moratorium on new entrants and a gradual reduction of units of gear toward the maximum number as individual claims to permits were resolved. Alaska’s license limitation program contributes to limiting fishing capacity, because it is coupled with other limitations on effort such as vessel size and gear restriction. Taken together, Alaska’s license limitation and other management tools allow managers to calculate with some assurance the power of the fishing fleets they seek to control. Although the program is neutral as to residency, the percentages of permits held by Alaskans have tended to remain stable from the time of initial limitation. Alaska’s program has always been controversial. The allocation system is complicated, expensive, and requires years to complete. While the program has survived all major legal challenges, courts have modified the program. Although the percentage of permits held by Alaskan residents has remained stable, in some areas, the number of permits held by local, rural Alaska residents has declined. Additionally, the high cost of permits in valuable fisheries has made initial entry into some fisheries difficult. Alaska’s license limitation program is most useful in fisheries that resemble Alaska salmon fisheries. The more a fishery departs from the Alaska salmon fishery model (as a fleet of individual owner-operators), the less likely it is that Alaska’s form of license limitation would be of value.

Thus the purpose of this article is to estimate the income elasticity of the demand, that includes all kinds of fish usage such as eating out and cooked foods as well as fresh materials for cooking in the household, and to analyze price linkages between domestic and foreign markets. As a result of estimating demand function by commodity, it was found that a) the income elasticity of demand for all usage is higher than that for household material, for many commodities, and b) tuna, bonito, salmon, left-eye flounder, sea bream, shrimp and crab show positive income elasticity. The analysis of price linkage for tuna, salmon, mackerel and shrimp showed that a) Japanese CIF price correlates with world average FOB price for salmon, implying that the prices are determined simultaneously, and b) there exist a time-lag for domestic price to be transmitted to foreign markets for tuna and frozen shrimp, though the lag is for some months. Therefore, Japanese recovery from economic recession will give rise to price hike in world markets for tuna and shrimp, for which supply potentials are worried due to the resources limitation and environmental contamination.

Various property rights allocations, including exclusive fishing rights, limited fishing licences, and limited processing licences were tried and abandoned, usually because of social and political pressures and lack of full appreciation of the common property character of the fishery. Opportunities for appropriating rent were surrendered. By 1930 management evolved to open access with various restrictions on effort. Jurisdictional disputes hindered and complicated management. After a flawed assignment of jurisdiction at the creation of Canada both the Canadian and British Columbia governments claimed fisheries management authority. Jurisdiction over fisheries had been assigned to the federal government. But, with jurisdiction over property assigned to the provincial governments and legally established property rights in fisheries, the stage was set for a series of conflicts and court cases before management responsibilities were clarified. Internationally, Canadians and Americans both claimed the right to exploit certain salmon stocks. By 1930 the essential elements of a treaty were negotiated, but not finally ratified by both countries until 1937.

  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Local Permit Ownership in Alaska Salmon Fisheries Author: Knapp, Gunnar Changes in ownership of limited entry permits by “local” residents of the region where a fishery occurs may have significant economic and social implications for fishery-dependent regions. This paper examines changes in local permit ownership in Alaska salmon fisheries, for which a long-term decline in rural local permit ownership is an important policy concern. Theoretically, permit market allocate permits over time to the individuals who are willing to pay the most for them. Any factors that differentially affect what local and non-local residents are willing to pay for permits may affect the equilibrium share of permits held by local residents. For remote rural fisheries in particular, these may include differences between local and non-local residents with respect to access to and costs of financing permits and boats, costs of travel to the fishery, opportunity costs of participation in the fishery, and many other factors. As a fishery increases in profitability, differences between local and non-local residents in access to financing matter more while differences in costs of travel and opportunity costs matter less in the relative ranking of what local and non-local residents are willing to pay for permits. This tends to increase the share of non-local residents among buyers willing to pay the market price for permits, reducing the equilibrium share of permits held by local residents. This leads to a conflict between two important policy goals: increasing fishery profitability and maintaining rural local permit ownership. Consistent with predictions of this theory, the local share of permit ownership in Alaska salmon fisheries is negatively related to permit prices (an indicator of fishery profitability).

  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Voluntary Approaches to Transitioning from Competive Fisheries to Rights- Based Management Author: Knapp, Gunnar, Murphy, James J. Despite potential advantages of rights-based management over competitive fisheries, there has been significant political resistance to rights-based management from many fishermen, which has slowed the adoption of rights-based management. This paper explores the concept of voluntary transitions to rights-based management, under which fishermen may choose between an allocated fishery (with individual or group quotas) or a competitive fishery, and the relative distribution of the total quota between the allocated and competitive fishery depends upon how many fishermen choose to participate in each. Voluntary transitions are possible if (a) access has already been limited; and (b) it is possible to divide the fishery—for example temporally or spatially—into two fisheries managed under different rules. By allocating disproportionately more fish to the competitive fishery, voluntary transitions may become a “win-win” approach under which both groups become better off, while over time an increasing proportion of fishermen choose to join the allocated fishery. This paper uses an experimental approach, in which subjects simulate actual fishing, to test and demonstrate the potential of voluntary transitions from competitive to rights-based fishing. The paper also discusses the Alaska Chignik salmon cooperative, an example of a voluntary transition from competitive to rights-based fishing.

  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Fishermen, Markets, and Population Diversity Author: Sanchirico, James N., Jardine, Sunny Fishing impacts biodiversity on multiple levels, potentially resulting in unintended feedbacks to economic performance of the fishery over time. For example, targeting observable traits within a population can impact genetic diversity, targeting populations within a species can impact population diversity, and targeting valuable species can impact biodiversity at the ecosystem level. The natural science and economics literatures, however, have given little attention to the impact of fishing on population diversity, even though population diversity is directly linked ecosystem services and estimates of population extinction rates are three orders of magnitude higher than species extinction rates. Here we develop a stochastic bioeconomic model that links the harvest of multiple salmon populations by a single commercial fishery to the trajectory of population diversity in a salmon stock complex. We parameterize our model with biological and economic data from the Copper River Chinook salmon fishery. We show that markets can incentivize the degradation of population diversity, reducing infra-marginal fishery rents and increase the variability in financial returns to the fishery. Factors impacting the magnitude of our results include the level and distribution of harvesting efficiency and market conditions. We also show that second-best management can conserve population diversity and improve welfare. Furthermore, depending fishermen’s time preferences, this management strategy is potentially self-financing.

  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Biosecurity vs. Profits: A Multi-Objective Model for the Aquaculture Industry Author: Estay-Montecinos, Manuel, Dresdner-Cid, Jorge In this paper we measure the value of sanitary restrictions in terms of forgone profits. For this we model the trade-off between biosecurity and profits in the salmon aquaculture industry. We introduce the concept of “sanitary desirable volume” of the salmon industry, as a goal in a bi-objective model. We are able to optimize this model, using base information relevant for the Los Lagos Region in Chile, and identify a Pareto Frontier. Within this setting we analyze the shadow price of one objective in terms of the other, the effect of changes in the administrative regulations that limit fish density in the farms, and of prices on the Pareto frontier. We find that the effect of sanitary restrictions in terms of forgone profits is quantitatively important and that this effect is dependent on the level of sanitary restrictions and on the relative product prices. This has important implications for the design of sanitary restrictions. The level of the sanitary desirable volume should be determined carefully to avoid costly excessive regulation. Moreover, market conditions can also affect the optimal level of regulation.

  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: The Trade Liberation and Fish Consumption Author: Honkanen, Asmo, Setälä, Jari, Saarni, Kaija Finland became a member of the European Union (EU) in 1995. After that the food market has changed radically. At the same time the eating away from home has become increasingly common. The aim of this paper is to describe the development of fish consumption in the Finnish catering service sector. The focus is to evaluate the period during rapid market changes. The estimation of fish consumption was based on a statistical sample and the data was collected in 1988, 1991, 1994 and 2005. It was found that the fish consumption has increased 30 per cent during the last ten years. The growth is exclusively based on imported fish. All types of imported fish products were used for meals more than earlier, but the consumption of fresh fish products has grown most extensively. The consumption of salmon and salmon trout increased most, while domestic caught Baltic herring is considerably less important than earlier. The frequency of serving fish meals has also increased. The abolition of national trade restrictions on fresh fish has inevitably had an impact on the consumption of fish in the catering sector.

Year: 2001 For more than a century, politicians, newspaper editors, tate and federal fisheries managers, and their various constituencies with an interest in salmon have complained,lobbied and petitioned, sought legislative relief, and studied to near extinction the declining runs of the Pacific Northwest’s anadromous fish runs. All to no avail, of course. Management efforts have failed; the attempt to the establish reliable, predictive models has failed; massive federal expenditures to rescue crashing stocks have failed; and endeavors to achieve consensus about future policymaking have failed. And today one can add to the now familiar story of extinct and endangered salmon, similar tales about ocean groundfish, newly impoverished fishing communities, reductions in fleet size, and more federal bailouts. What is fascinating in the unveiling of this most recent story is the sense of history repeating itself as commercial fishers shift from one species to the next.

  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: A Review of Fishery Research in the Pacific Area Author: Atkinson, Clinton E. Year: 2001 It is impossible to place a date on the beginning of fishery research. It no doubt existed in a primitive way among the earliest civilizations. For practical reasons, the scope of this paper is limited to the four countries bordering the North Pacific--Japan, Canada, Russia and the United States--and to research directed towards a better understanding and management of the fishery resources of commercial value. It is interesting that development of fishery research in three of the four countries was prompted by a serious decline in their salmon runs and by the adoption of hatcheries as a means to restore or maintain the depleted runs. The only difference was in Russia where fishery research began with a decline in sturgeon in the Volga and the Caspian Sea. In the Russian Far East, however, it again was a decline in salmon in the Amur and Sakhalin rivers and all were linked primarily to loss or damage to their freshwater environment. Overfishing and destructive fishing practices were recognized almost from the beginning but it was not until 1917 that the work of Thompson on Pacific halibut led to the development of modern theory of population dynamics for the management of the fisheries. Following are notes on the development of fishery research in each of the four countries. Title: A Review of Fishery Research in the Pacific Area Author: Atkinson, Clinton E.

My more recent appointment to the National Marine Fisheries Service Technical Recovery Team for the Willamette and Lower Columbia River endangered salmonid restoration planning has added to that an opportunity to interact with fisheries biologists a good deal. Understanding this background, please note that I speak as an individual rather than representing either group here. I have two bottom line messages I’d like to give you: 1. Thinking of the salmon fishery in isolation from other parts of our economy is futile 2. There is not enough water in the Columbia River to meet the aspirations of all the user groups: Whether we make societal decisions, or choose to effectively make them by inactivity, some distinguishable groups of people are going to lose out and pay a high price.

  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Generic Advertising for the Seafood Industry Author: Armbruster, Walter J. Year: 2001 The seafood industry is one part of the food industry competing for consumer protein demand. Generic advertising or promotion offers one approach to expand that demand. Generic promotion programs focus on market expansion involving an entire industry or segment. They involve advertising directly to the final consumer or to institutional or retail buyers, or promotion programs to accompany other marketing activities. Generic advertising programs to educate consumers about nutritional values of seafood and food safety measures taken by the industry may help to increase consumer demand. Generic promotion programs for agricultural commodities have enjoyed success and provided lessons useful for the seafood industry. Econometric analyses have generally determined that generic promotion programs have been relatively profitable for producers in aggregate, but impact varies considerably among programs. For success in the seafood industry, a substantial sub-sector of participants would need to agree to work together to provide the funding through a trade association or government program. The fragmented structure of fishing boat owners and the open access, common property nature of U.S. fisheries indicates that programs would need to be organized at the processor or wholesaler levels. Challenges would be the relatively small operations which are geographically dispersed, but a few companies account for a large portion of total product. Several generic promotion programs exist in the seafood industry: the unsuccessful U.S. Seafood Promotion Act of 1986, an ongoing Alaska salmon promotion program, a Norway salmon promotion program, and in the farm-raised catfish industry program in the southeastern U.S. Successful programs will require well thought out objectives that identify commodity attributes that could be successfully promoted, recognize budget limits, allocate resources carefully, develop an implementation strategy that fits the industry structure, and include plans to evaluate effectiveness.

  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: What is the demand for farmed fish on the European markets? Author: Mariojouls, Catherine, Girard, Sophie This paper analyses what are the potential outlets on European markets for new farmed fish. In the first part, the main striking features about the structure and evolution of the European fish trade over the last decade are presented. The analysis of fish imports and exports provides comprehensive data to characterize the EU fish demand per commodity categories, per species groups, per country, and to estimate price trends for both wild and farmed fish imports. Then, the second part is dedicated to an in-depth analysis of the fresh fish trade, as main outlet for farmed fish. The evolution of the balance trade for the main species groups showing a deficit (salmon, gadoids, other demersal fish, completed by an analysis of the price segmentation of fish imports, highlight the substitution phenomena between farmed and wild fish which occurred over the last decade, while providing an assessment of the fish demand for the different market segments. These results are utilized to analyse the potential outlets on European markets for new farmed species issued from an aquaculture diversification, taking into account the increasing competition from well-established and concentrated fish farming industries (salmon, seabass and seabream), as well as the more recent introduction of low-priced freshwater tropical fish (ex. pangasius). A particular attention is paid to the red drum (Sciaenops ocellatus), a tropical marine fish farmed in the French overseas territories. Future prospects for farmed fish diversification are also discussed as regards the consumer expectations towards image and quality attributes (including environmental).

Year: 2001 Between 1988 and 1997, Japanese fish and shellfish catch dropped by 42 percent, falling to its lowest level in 31 years. Domestic prices sharply increased, but per capita fish and shellfish consumption is still higher than that of all meats. To meet rising demand, Japan became the world’s largest importer, absorbing one third of global fish and shellfish imports, and the United States became its largest supplier up to 1996, when the United States was superceded by China. Outlook for exporting to Japan is excellent because the U.S. catch contains most of the species prized highly in the Japanese market, such as salmon, crabs, and Alaska pollack.

The article focuses on the role of state agencies in the creation and maintenance of successful comanagement regimes and discusses how state agencies can facilitate the creation of social trust while retaining independence and a concern for broader public interests The author argues that a combination of bureaucratic autonomy and an effective, independent judiciary is an important institutional component of success. The argument is illustrated with the case of a comanagement regime for salmon fisheries in the U.S. Pacific Northwest.

Author: Norman-López, Ana, Bjørndal, Trond Tilapia is one of the fastest growing aquaculture species in the world. It is produced and consumed in all continents and in more countries than most other species, making the market more heterogeneous than for other successful aquaculture species such as salmon and shrimp. This paper investigates the degree of market integration between tilapia from the three largest production regions, Asia, Africa and South and Central America. The study considers the different production methods, transport costs and qualities between the world’s largest producers and determines whether tilapia products from different producers can essentially be considered the same product. This is important in order to understand the fast development of farmed tilapia worldwide and its prospects for future development.

The crisis in a lot of big fisheries, e.g. cod fishery on the Grand Banks, salmon fisheries along the pacific coast of the USA and Canada, must lead to different management regimes. In the paper I describe different concepts for sustainable fisheries and economic models which deal with them. Some ideas about the development of ecosystem models or multi-species fisheries models and whether they are possible solutions are included. In the opposite there are management concepts like the safe minimum standard or the precautionary principle to create sustainable fisheries. In 1999 the European Union introduced the precautionary principle in fisheries management but it takes time to fulfil all necessary criteria. As an example for this new management regime the Baltic Sea fisheries are described and what must be done in the future to implement a precautionary principle.

  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Factors Affecting U.S. Aquaculturists' Intended Actions to Expand Production Capacity Abroad Author: Tudur, Lacey, Asche, Frank, Chu, Jingjie, Anderson, James L. 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 and their farms. Primary data were collected via an original online survey. Both multinomial probit and probit models identify the factors affecting aquaculturists‟ intended actions to expand abroad. The results indicate that large-scale, non-shellfish (e.g., finfish, salmon, or shrimp), less-educated, marine aquaculturists with high expectations about seafood demand during the next three years; who think U.S. permit and environmental regulations are strict; that aquaculture leases should be transferable; and that the U.S.A. has comparative advantages in skilled labor availability and access to the domestic markets, are more likely to expand their operations abroad. The results provide guidance for U.S. policy makers to help retain aquaculture entrepreneurs and investors domestically.

  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: On the Relationship between Aquaculture and Reduction Fisheries Author: Tveteras, Sigbjorn, Asche, Frank Year: 2001 Traditional aquaculture has to a large extent used herbivore species with limited requirements for additional feeding. However, in intensive aquaculture production one farm carnivore species like salmon and also feeds herbivore species with fishmeal as this increase growth. This has lead to a growing concern that increased aquaculture production poses an environmental threat to the species targeted in reduction fisheries as increased demand increase fishing pressure. In this paper we address this question along two lines. First, under which management regimes may increased demand pose a threat to the species in question. Second, we investigate what is the market for fishmeal. Is fishmeal a unique product or is it a part of the larger market for oilmeals which includes soyameal? This is an important issue since the market structure for fishmeal is instrumental for whether increased aquaculture production may affect fishmeal prices, and thereby increase fishing pressure in industrial fisheries.

  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Power, Fish, and the Greenhouse on the Columbia River Author: Buchanan, Shepard C. Year: 2001 The Columbia River in the Pacific Northwest region of the U.S. is home to the greatest hydroelectric system in the world. Its dams provide 75 percent of the power needs of nearly 10 million people. But the dams also create numerous obstacles to the survival of what was once the world’s greatest salmon fishery. The region spends over $500 million annually to try to restore the fishery and ensure its future survival. However, the changes in river operations implemented to meet fish needs make it much more difficult to meet other environmental goals, such as the development of renewable electric power resources. Renewable resources would help to alleviate the risks associated with global warming. This paper demonstrates an unfortunate irony: that the renewable resources advocated by environmental interests are incompatible with a hydro system that is operated for fish. Such resources could add billions of dollars to the costs of electric power, while providing minimal environmental benefits. Saving the fish and reducing greenhouse gases are two environmental goals that do not appear to be compatible.

  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: An Economic Discussion of the Marine Sport Fisheries in Central and Lower Cook Inlet Author: Criddle, Keith R., Hamel, Charles, Lee, S. Todd, Hermann, Mark Year: 2001 This paper reports on the valuation of the marine halibut and salmon sport fishery of central and lower Cook Inlet, Alaska. The project was designed to simulate changes in economic value and regional economic impacts for environmental analysis but has also been used in fishery allocation management. This study develops a predictive model of participation rate changes for estimation of net benefits to anglers and links the resulting demand function to a regional input-output model for determining expenditure-based impacts of marine sportfishing to the Kenai Peninsula economy. The participation rate model is driven by changes in mean sport fishery attributes such as the expected catch rate and weight for various species as well as the average cost of a fishing day. The total estimated new money brought into the Kenai Peninsula as a result of 259,615 saltwater angler days in central and lower Cook Inlet was $37.4 million in 1997, and the total compensating variation, $25.4 million. Simulations involving changes to sportfishing trip attributes from a 1997 baseline trip are examined and reported in the paper.

In the early 1970's the name was changed to National Marine Fisheries Service and with the 200 mile law in 1976, its role changed very significantly to include major responsibilities in management and enforcement. It issues more than 400 rules a year. In 1978 its annual budget was about $150 million. In 2000 it is $383 million and the president has requested $657 million for 2001. I will discuss five examples of marine or anadromous fish life, the role government has played, the results to date, and some views about the future.

Results have been disappointing. Decades of expensive efforts costing billion of dollars have been relatively ineffective in increasing salmon runs. Many species of wild fish continue to decline or remain significantly below target levels of recovery. The issue of scientific and economic uncertainties is examined. Past and current policies have failed to adequately account for these uncertainties. One overall recommendation of this paper is that policymakers and their advisors should explicitly identify any decision criteria upon which they base their judgments or conclusions. A second recommendation is that policy analysis should be explicit about uncertainties. We offer the eighteen decision rules for fashioning fish recovery decisions in an environment of uncertainty.
