This paper examines the social economic value of the Greenland off-shore shrimp fishery. The contribution of the fishery to the economy is examined using a cost-benefit analysis where the objective of the report is to examine the current state of the fishery rather than possible changes, which...

Many ocean fisheries are subject to a fundamental economic problem generally referred to as the common property problem. The common property problem manifests itself as excessive fishing fleets and fishing effort, depressed fish stocks and little or no profitability of the fishing activity,...

Real life implies that public procurement contracting of renewable resources results in repeated interaction between a principal and the agents. The present paper analyses ratchet effects in contracting of renewable resources and how the presence of a resource constraint alters the "standard"...

To solve the problem of illegal landings this article proposes a new tax mechanism based on the regulator's own aggregate catch estimates and "ex ante" self-reports of planned catch by fishermen. We show that the mechanism avoids illegal landings while ensuring (nearly) optimal exploitation and...

The economic efficiencies of the Danish, Icelandic, and Norwegian cod fisheries are examined. For this purpose, nonlinear aggregate models of these fisheries are constructed. Comparing the calculated optimal harvest and biomass quantities with the actual fisheries provides a measure of the...
