Intensive farms are found to be slightly more resource use efficient than
extensive farms.

and 1982." Draft report, Department of Economics, University of
Rhode Island, Kingston, RI.
The hypothesis is tested that women's dependency on their husbands
income has decreased as labor force participation has increased between 1972
and 1982. The remaining dependency is solely a function unequal wage paid to
men and women.

Halibut Fishery, Applications to the Magnuson Act. Thesis, Oregon
State University, Corvallis, OR, April, 107 pp.
ITQ regulations in the Pacific halibut fishery will provide some benefit
to the severely overcapitalized halibut fishery. However, the ITQ program may
threaten resource sustainability by providing fishermen with an incentive to
exceed their quota and high-grade their catch. In addition, the quota
consolidation, job loss, and costs that will result from the new system will
raise several ethical concerns regarding the ideas of social equity,
efficiency, and stewardship. Based on traditional conservation ethics as well
as more modern ideas, the envirocentric ethical approach to quota management
can be used to address some of these environmental and ethical problems.

report, NMFS, SEFC, Galveston Laboratory, Galveston, TX, 71 pp.
Fishing areas, time of day and duration of tows were controlled by the
captain of each vessel to simulate commercial conditions. A statistically
significant mean loss in shrimp catch per unit effort of 0.39 - 0.17 lb/hr
(5.1%) was experienced by all TED equipped nets combined, compared to standard
nets. Analyzed separately, nets equipped with Georgia TEDs (with and without
funnels) exhibited a reduction in shrimp CPUE of 3.6% and 13.6% respectively,
compared to standard nets. There was no significant difference in shrimp CPUE
between standard nets and nets equipped with Super Shooter TEDS with a funnel.

Bulletin, 91:129-137.
Observers from the National Marine Fisheries Service collected
information on catch rates of shrimp aboard commercial shrimp vessels during
March 1988 to August 1990. Comparisons were made between nets equipped with
Turtle Excluder Devices (TEDs) and standard shrimp nets. Three types of TEDs
were tested: Georgia TEDs with and without accelerator funnels and Super
Shooter TEDs with funnels.
Fishing area, time of day, and duration of tows were controlled by the
captain of each vessel to simulate commercial conditions. A statistically
significant (P < 0.05) mean loss in shrimp catch per unit effort (CPUE) of
0.24 lb/h (3.6%) and 0.93 lb/h (13.6%) was exhibited by nets equipped with
Georgia TEDs (with and without funnels, respectively) compared with standard
