  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: The Current State of the Clam, Galatea paradoxa, Fishery at the Lower Volta River, Ghana Author: Agbeko, N.A., Obirikorang, K.A., Adjei-Boateng, D., Amisah, S., Agbo, N.W. The clam, Galatea paradoxa has for decades been an important source of protein to the riparian communities of the lower Volta River and provides employment to about 2000 people, especially women. The fishing grounds have dwindled from 100 km from the pre-dam era to a narrow stretch of 10 km as a result of the development of sand bars at the estuary. This study was conducted to ascertain the socio-economic importance of the clam fishery to the people of the lower Volta, Ghana. The research found out that there were 251 fishing canoes and 503 fishers engaged in the clam fishery. The average daily catch per fishing canoe was 130 kg of clams, with an annual harvest of 7700 tonnes worth 4,620,408 Ghana Cedis. Commercial extinction of G. paradoxa is imminent in the lower Volta as a result of habitat alteration and overfishing. There is the need to put in place a sustainable harvesting measure that will target medium to large size clams against the current situation where the catch is dominated by smaller clams. It is recommended that a minimum landing size of 50 mm should be imposed. This should be done in consultation with the chiefs and traditional authorities in the communities which have managed the fishery to date. The marketing of clams below the 50 mm shell length limit should be abolished and enforced by the traditional authorities. Secondly, the farming of smaller clams, which is a traditional activity in the estuary, should be encouraged so that fishers who harvest undersize clams can seed them onto their culture plots.

  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Structure and Economic Performance of the European Union Fishing Fleet Author: Anderson, John, Virtanen, Jarno, Carvalho, Natacha The 2012 Annual Economic Report (AER) on the European Union (EU) fishing fleet provides a comprehensive overview of the latest information available on the structure and economic performance of EU Member States fishing fleets. Results suggest that the total amount of income generated by the EU fishing fleet in 2010 (excluding Greece) was €7 billion. The EU fleet moved from a loss making position to a profitable position in 2010. The total amount of Gross Value Added (GVA), Operating cash flow (OCF) and economic profit/loss generated by the EU fishing fleet in 2010 was €3.4 billion (5.7% increase from 2009), €1.2 billion (39.5% increase from 2009) and €288 million (an increase of over €300 million from 2009) respectively. Profitability indicators - GVA, gross profit and net profit as a proportion of total income - all show improvement from 2009 results. GVA as a proportion of total income has increased steadily from 42% in 2008 to 47% in 2009 to 49% in 2010. Gross profit as a proportion of total income increased from 13% in 2009 to 18% in 2010. Net profit as a proportion of total income increased from negative 0.4% in 2009 to 4% in 2010. Analysis of economic performance by Member State reveals a mixed picture in 2010. 11 out of 21 Member States generated a net profit in 2010, compared to 12 out of 21 in 2009. The data suggest that only 4 Member States produced a negative gross profit in 2010.
