The author (1) defines the fishing tackle industry as manufacturers
define it, (2) defines the marine recreational fisheries as the fishing tackle
industry perceives them, and (3) outlines how he believes marine recreational
fisheries can be improved, expanded, and strengthened. Hopefully, this will
provide the basis for a stronger total industry.
Kouka, Pierre-Justin (1995). An Empirical Model of Pricing in the Catfish
Industry. Marine Resource Economics, 10(2):161-169.
The adoption of aquacultural products has created an imbalance of market
power between catfish producers and a processing sector that exerts a
monopsonistic power in certain regions of the U.S. such as west Alabama.
However, because of the recent changes caused by vertical integration of the
catfish industry, the existence of an oligopolistic power has been identified
in the catfish industry. An empirical model of pricing in the catfish
industry was developed using a theoretical model proposed by Appelbaum. An
analysis of the market structure was conducted to provide estimates of
conjectural elasticities over time. Conjectural elasticities were used to
construct the oligopoly power index. Results show some evidence of the
existence of oligopolistic power in the catfish industry that further suggests
some degree of price enhancement.
Kraniotis, Patricia (1993). "The Fisheries Enforcement Agreement
Between the United States and Canada." Paper presented at the
Workshop on Enforcement Measures, Organization for Economic Co-
Operation and Development, Directorate for Food, Agriculture, and
Fisheries, Committee for Fisheries, Paris, September.
This paper discusses the history of the agreement between the United
States and Canada on fisheries enforcement. It discusses the Agreement itself
and the implementing domestic laws and regulations. The paper explores how
the agreement has functioned in operation, evaluating both its strengths,
weaknesses, and potential applications of this approach in other fisheries
contexts.
Krapf, David (1995). From TEDs to BRDs, Gulf and South Atlantic Shrimp
fishermen Shift Bycatch Focus. In Brad Warren, Win-Win Bycatch
Solutions. National Fisheries Conservation Center, Seattle WA.
The paper presents a discussion of the marine turtle and finfish bycatch
problem in the Gulf of Mexico and south Atlantic shrimp fishery whose solution
is expected to be a gear modification using TED and BRD devices. Views on the
issue by both commercial fishermen associations and conservation groups are
presented and discussed in the report.
