  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Japan's Declining Fish Catch Raises Trade Prospects Author: Taha, Fawzi A. 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fish and shellfish imports, and the United States became its largest supplier up to 1996, when the United States was superceded by China.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.

• 73. [Article] Cooperation or Capture?: The Paradox of Comanagement and Community Participation in Natural Resource Management and Environmental Policymaking

  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Cooperation or Capture?: The Paradox of Comanagement and Community Participation in Natural Resource Management and Environmental Policymaking Author: Singleton, Sara Year: 2001 The article examines the conditions under which community-based management or comanagement is likely to result in either (I)successful collaboration between a state agency and a local community or (ii) “capture” of a public agency by private or special interests. 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.

  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Is tilapia the same product worldwide or are markets segmented? 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.

  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Concepts of Sustainable Fisheries Author: Doering, Ralf Year: 2001 The number of discussions about sustainable fisheries is increasing world-wide. 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.
