Mainstreaming Fisheries in development and poverty reduction strategies in the Asia-Pacific region
Journal of the Asia Pacific Economy, 2008Co-Authors: Andy Thorpe, Simon Funge-smith, Chris ReidAbstract:This paper offers an assessment of the mainstreaming of Fisheries in national development plans and Poverty Reduction Strategy Papers within the Asia-Pacific region. Fisheries and aquaculture in the region make a significant contribution to World Fisheries Production. Importantly, those directly involved in the sector are predominantly small-scale artisanal producers, a group traditionally regarded as extremely vulnerable in poverty terms. Therefore, mainstreaming – integrating a sector into every stage of the national policy process – may have important welfare implications for those drawing livelihoods from the industry. This paper examines the significance of Fisheries and aquaculture to developing Asia-Pacific economies, and evaluates the extent to which the sector has been mainstreamed in national development and poverty reduction strategies using a content analysis framework. We conclude that the representation of Fisheries issues, the recognition of sectoral poverty, policy responses, and stakehold...

Mainstreaming Fisheries into Latin American development strategies
International Development Planning Review, 2005Co-Authors: Chris Reid, Andy Thorpe, Raymon Van Anrooy, Cecile BrugereAbstract:The paper offers an assessment of the mainstreaming of Fisheries in Latin American national development plans and Poverty Reduction Strategy Papers, World Bank Country Assistance Strategies and EU Country Strategy papers. Although Fisheries are not one of the region's most important industries, it does make a major contribution to World Fisheries Production and includes a number of internationally significant producers. More importantly, those directly involved in the sector are predominantly small-scale artisanal producers, a group traditionally regarded as vulnerable to poverty. Therefore, mainstreaming – the integration of a sector into every stage of policy processes to address cross-sectoral issues such as poverty reduction – may have important welfare implications for those drawing livelihoods from the industry. The extent of mainstreaming, examined by a content analysis of development plans, is compared to the economic and social significance of fishing. The paper concludes that Fisheries are under...

The New Economic Model and Marine Fisheries Development in Latin America
World Development, 2000Co-Authors: Andy Thorpe, Alonso Aguilar Ibarra, Chris ReidAbstract:The New Economic Model (NEM) has profoundly influenced Fisheries development in Latin America, facilitating the emergence of new and increasingly influential interest groups within the industry. It has also stimulated new forms of Production and prompted new legislation to regulate fishing in the region's most important fishing countries. These changes have coincided with Latin America's increasing importance in World Fisheries Production and trade. The NEM has not, however, resolved the sector's fundamental problems, such as overfishing, overcapitalization and conflict, and has arguably exacerbated them.

Constraints and possibilities for developing aquaculture
Aquaculture International, 1993Co-Authors: E. HempelAbstract:World aquaculture Production in 1990 reached some 15 million tonnes, and predictions indicate that future Production will reach 19.6 million tonnes by 2000, 37.5 million tonnes by 2010, and 62.4 million tonnes by 2025. Meanwhile, World Fisheries Production from capture will remain stable at about 100 million tonnes. Thus, all future increase in seafood supplies will have to come from aquaculture. Possibilities for development of aquaculture exist in a number of areas around the World. Technology and natural conditions determine the choice of sites and species to be produced, but current research indicates that a number of new species will be added to the present aquaculture Production in the coming years. However, well-known species such as carp, tilapia, trout, salmon, turbot, halibut, cod, and sturgeon will be the most important in the immediate future. Among the crustaceans, shrimp will continue to be an important item, as will various kinds of gastropods and bivalves. Regions with a particular suitability for development of aquaculture include Africa, Asia, and Latin America. Freshwater aquaculture may also be developed on a larger scale in the former Eastern European countries, including the former Soviet Union, but here (and in Africa), political and economic constraints will slow down development for the next decade. A major constraint for development of aquaculture in Africa is the lack of infrastructure, as well as political problems, slow or deficient bureaucracies, and to some extent pollution. In Eastern Europe, development will be hindered by the lack of capital, and uncertainty about the political and economic development. Eastern Europe also has a major environmental problem, which may limit growth within this field. In Asia, space and availability of suitable sites are becoming a problem, as are pollution, diseases, and in some cases overProduction. A general constraint to global development of aquaculture may be price fluctuations, which affect the investment willingness of interested investors. This question must be seen in connection with the economics of operation. As new species are being launched, there is usually a short period of high profits, followed by a period of price reductions, and the collapse of several operators. After such turbulence, serious operators with proper management survive, and go on to operate a reasonably profitable business. The mechanism seems to be true for all new business areas, and does create a problem for sustained investor interest in aquaculture development.
