Economical aspects of fishery management on ICNAF waters

Abstract

The present study comprises an analysis of the interdependence of the fishing effort and effects of the Polish fishery on the ICNAF waters within the years 1963-1969. In the introductory chapters methods and econometric models applied are described, a particular attention being paid to the standardized measures of the fishing effort for various kinds of vessels operating on the ICNAF area. The sources of information, serving as a basis for the study are also presented. Subsequent chapters expose the seasonal character of fishery, its three forms, i.e., the seasonal character of fishing effort, fishing yields and fishing being discussed as well as their interrelationship. Results of the analysis are related to the ICNAF subdivision and the conclusion are drawn.
