  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Scenarios as Radical Alternatives: The Case of Aquaculture in the Finnish Archipelago Sea Author: Hukkinen, Janne, Brunn, Henrik, Eklund, Erland Year: 2001 The method of constructing scenarios is neither straightforward nor unproblematic. We propose first of all the term epistemic closure for representing the necessary methodological limitations of scenario construction. Whenever a particular kind of epistemic closure becomes a habit within some field of scenario-making, we use the term conventional scenarios. The problem with conventional scenario-making is that its analysis of the future is restricted – it can only register the events and trends that its particular approach allows it to see. There is a risk of highly contingent developments, for which there is no preparation in society. Therefore, we want to emphasize the importance of constructing unconventional scenarios, that is, scenarios that are not based on conventional epistemic closure. Our second argument concerns the wide range of variance in future development. Social evolution includes events and developmental trajectories that are impossible to discern with any approach that represents development in a linear fashion. Most scenarios consider the past to be a model for the future, in which existing trends are projected into the future. We call these scenarios trend-based. Other scenarios – called Event-based scenarios – acknowledge that the future is contingent in relation to our knowledge, and focus more on the fact that the pattern of change can change. To illustrate our methodological arguments, a small case study on the future of aquaculture in the archipelago of southwestern Finland is included in the text.

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: Rate of Profit Return with ITQs: Fishing for Optimality Author: Zhang, Meng, Batstone, Chris, Sharp, Basil The year 1990 saw the introduction of individual transferable quota rights to the NZ rock lobster fishery. This paper presents an analysis of the evolution of profitability in five different quota management areas over the period 1990-2001. The bio-economic model of an optimal fishery provides the basis for econometric analysis. The rate of profit return in each region was regressed on the corresponding real interest rate and the marginal stock effect. Evidence is found for the existence of optimal fishery. In general the half-life value of each region’s rate of profit return is trending towards its mean value. Significant individual monthly effects are also evident when we regress the rate of profit return on a time trend and monthly dummy variables.

  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: African Fisheries : Major Trends and Diagnostic of the 20th Century Author: Njifonjou, O., Njock, J.C. Year: 2001 The marine fisheries production from African coastal countries, combined with that of freshwater production of the continent is estimated to be 6 millions metric tons, corresponding only 5 % of the total world production. Africa's contribution to fisheries products (1,5 %) is insignificant compared to that of world commerce which is around 44 millions tons. This deplorable situation is due to a certain number of problems which include s among others, the relative biogenic poverty of African waters, the exploitation of African waters by foreign vessels, the total lack of catches effected by the African vessels out of their regional boundaries, the lack of knowledge on the mastering of commercialisation and on veritable commercial politics of fisheries products, including quality assurance. In addition to this, the almost inexistence of the aquaculture in the sub-Saharan countries. This paper analyses the African fisheries in the whole continent and presents the general characters, notably its evolution, fisheries resources, valorisation and consumption of fisheries products. The global analysis made here accords a priority to markets as well as to the framework of contribution of these products and tries, at the end of the 20th century, to present some trends. Facing the globalisation phenomena, how will African fisheries producers be challenged in the new millennium? This continental level analysis brings out field application and some different development perspectives for both small scale and industrial fisheries sub-sectors.

  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: The Analysis on the Tee of China Export Aquatic Products and The Export Trend to Japan Author: Che, Bin, Sun, Chen Japan has been the biggest export market of aquatic products of China for many years. The export of aquatic products to Japan reached more than 700,000 ton and $ 3 billion in 2007. The influence to the export market caused by the sweeping economic crisis will affect the benefits of the export enterprises of China. The trade complementary index shows great potential of aquatic products trade between China and Japan. However, under the circumstances of economic crisis, to set up limits of import would be the prior choice of the trade policy by Japan. The paper analyses the trade economic efficiency (TEE ) of the export aquatic products to Japan in detail. TEE is an index to reflect the export situation of one country from the economic point of view by the trend of trade price change. If TEE>1, then the trade (either export or import) of the interested country is more efficient than the average level of the world market. If TEE<1, the situation is the opposition. We choose the species which export quantity exceeds 1000 ton to analyze and find out that the TEE of only 10 species is more than 1, which refers to more efficient. The number doesn_t reach 1/3 of the sample. The TEE of some species is even not as much as 0.6. Moreover, the paper points out that the limits set up to the aquatic products of China under the economic crises by Japan will be different from those of before. According to the dual characteristics of technical trade measure, the limits set up can be based on market failure as well as on economic benefit. The purpose of former is to protect the consumers. In the latter condition, the benefit of producers is considered. The limits set up this time would be based on the economic benefits in order to protect the benefit of domestic producers. Therefore, the export of aquatic products of China may encounter dual difficulties. Not only will the TEE of export be worse, but also will the export scale be declined. Accordingly, the government should take more effective measures to improve the export environment in order to help the enterprises to get through the trouble.

  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.

Author: Honkanen, Asmo, Ahvonen, Anssi, Veneranta, Lari The fishery barometer surveys the economic prospects and trends of fishery enterprises in Finland. The barometer survey was developed on the basis of the general business surveys. The survey has been carried out annually since year 2000. Here we study if the results could be explained by external economic information or internal results. The external economic information is based on the official account statistics data. The internal comparison is made by comparing if the entrepreneurs_ opinions of previous years economy explains the prospects for the coming year. The survey population consists of all fisheries sector enterprises on the business register of Statistics Finland. Here the fishery sector includes the whole value chain from fishing, aquaculture and processing to wholesale and retail trade. The results showed that for the fisheries sector enterprises, the turnover information inquired by a telephone survey differed to some extend from the factual information compiled later on the basis of the accounts statistics. The conclusions of the comparisons are discussed more closely in the paper. Title: Do Fishery Barometer Reflect Corresponding Economic Statistics?

  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Risk Assessment of the Mediterranean Seabass and Seabream industry in Greece: A Stochastic Simulation Approach Based on insurance Claims Author: Tzovenis, Ioannis, Sorgeloos, Patrick, Viaene, Jacques, Theodorou, John A., Kotsonis, Antonios The Mediterranean finfish aquaculture is strongly represented from the successful industrial development of the mass production of the Mediterranean seabass (Dicentrarchus labrax) and seabream (Spaurus aurata), with Greece as the major producer country, contributing with approximately 57% of the global farmed production of both species. Despite the difficulty to obtain information from the private and public sector about the aquaculture insurance claims, the analysis of insurance data is necessary to develop a risk management strategy of the industry. The aim of the present work is to identify the major risks affecting the seabass/seabream aquaculture by examining qualitative and quantitative insurance claims from the early developmental stage (mid-80s) up to the maturation of the Greek sector (2000). A risk assessment based on scenario quantification and Monte Carlo Simulation with the ZHA WORKS 4.2 QUANT software is used to reveal percentile statistics of 1 Year/Worst out of x Years aggregate loss and thus to "harden" the basis for decision taking. The use of the past insurance experience provides forecasting trends for risk avoidance in the future and contributes to a strategy development for the sustainability of the sector.

  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Perspectives of Rights Based Fishery Management in Mexico Author: Enriquez, Roberto, Batalla Camargo, Gabriela Year: 2001 Despite increasing concerns, the progress towards better management of fisheries in Mexico has been slow. The main political, social and economic forces behind over fishing in the country remain largely at place. Among the major problems are demographic pressure, open access or ill defined property rights, excessive centralization of management decisions, and a wide array of market and regulatory disincentives for conservation. This paper presents an overview of the current situation of fisheries management in Mexico and discuses the potential benefits and limitations of the implementation of rights based management to reverse current overexploitation trends The discussion considers likely management scenarios at the turn of the millennium. The paper concludes that property rights based management has an important potential to promote efficiency, profitability and increased stewardship of fishery resources, particularly if implemented at the local human community level. However, effective implementation must surmount substantial constitutional, political economic and cultural barriers.

  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Japanese Fish Demand and Price Linkage with Foreign Markets Author: Tada, Minoru Year: 2001 Japan has about 10% and 15% share for the consumption and trade of marine products respectively, and the trend has significant impacts on world markets. 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.

  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: The Future of Capitalism Revisited Author: Farrell, John P. Year: 2001 This essay deliberates on the future of capitalism or, more specifically, the mixture of command and market likely to characterize the modern economy two to three decades on. I start by discussing global trends in the supply and demand for market and non-market goods and the collateral demand for institutions, arguing that the value of non-market goods can be expected to rise relative to market goods, because of the relative fixity of supply of some nonmarket goods (esthetic environmental goods, e.g.), limited substitution possibilities and the high cost of achieving appropriate institutional change. Growing tension between, on the one hand, the demand for non-market goods and the ability of the economy to produce such goods will drive change in the nature of capitalism. If institutions are unable to deliver, if the U.S. economy proves rigid, lacking in ability to adapt, then we can expect bureaucratic resolutions costly in terms of forgone growth. If, however, institutions can adapt in market-friendly way, we can expect continued growth and more efficient production of both market and non-market goods.

  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Introduction to the Issues and Context of Rapid Changes in World Demand for Fish Author: Ahmed, Mahfuzuddin, Delgado, Christopher Year: 2001 Recent trends in global fish production, consumption and trade reflect several fundamental shifts in the structure of supply of and demand for fish and seafood. Rapid changes in world demand for fish is first discussed. Six panelists discuss the issues derived from considering fisheries—with particular emphasis on aquaculture—as a major form of food and export production in developing countries that competes with crop and livestock activities for resources. A first paper will review and analyze developments in international seafood markets and its impact on developing countries. This is followed by discussion of the conceptual and practical methodological issues in integrating fish into a broader world food model. Subsequent papers will provide more in-depth sectoral consideration of the trade-offs involved in placing fisheries supply and demand issues in the broader context of agriculture supply and demand, with added regional insights for specific parts of developing Asia and Sub- Saharan Africa. Two panel discussants with broad geographic experience and in-depth knowledge of fisheries issues will provide synthesis of the papers, followed by an open discussion of the panel topic and related issues.

  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Social and Economic Issues in Aquaculture Development for Coastal Communities of Tabasco, Mexico Author: Perez Sanchez, Eunice, Ross, Lindsay G., Muir, James F. Year: 2001 Following an assessment of Mexican water resources by governmental agencies in the late 1940’s, Tabasco State was identified as a potential area for aquaculture development, as the State holds 30% of National water resources and an important share of Southeast Mexican fisheries, particularly for oyster production. However, conflicts and competition for coastal resources between the expanding oil industry and fishing communities are escalating, with consequences including severe environmental degradation. Though a number of aquaculture-linked development initiatives have been promoted, evidence suggests that issues of social benefit, integrated development and livelihood enhancement are poorly understood. This paper reports the findings of preliminary social and economic surveys of coastal communities engaged in aquaculture operations, and suggests that current approaches are unlikely to deliver benefit effectively as key issues have not been addressed. Preliminary recommendations are made based on trends and issues of particular importance to coastal communities, to improve livelihoods through better access to resources and infrastructure.

  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Fishery Management Innovations in New Zealand Author: Starr, Paul Year: 2001 Two fishery management innovations developed in New Zealand are described. The first is a programme of “selfmonitoring” of the catch through the biological sampling by the skipper or a crew member on the vessel. The intent of this programme is to take a small sample of many units of effort across a broad range of the fleet on a frequent basis. This design is dynamic and ensures that the fishery is well sampled. Examination of the data collected shows considerable internal integrity in the data and provides confidence that the information is reliable. The second innovation is the use of experimental increases in TAC (Total Allowable Catch) levels to obtain information on fish stocks which have low information availability. These increases in allowable catch are coupled with monitoring programmes to follow stock abundance trends under higher levels of removals. Both the NZ government and the NZ fishing industry are supportive of this programme as it is an effective way to obtain fish stock information when research opportunities are limited. It is the opinion of the author that the existence of the ITQ management system in New Zealand coupled with a governmental policy of recovering attributable management costs have created a climate in which innovations which reduce costs while maintaining the quality of research are favoured.
