Effect of non-tariff measures on extensive and intensive margins of exports in seafood trade.Shepotylo, Oleksandr 2016 February 1917 (has links)
Yes / This paper explores the effects of non-tariff measures (NTM) on extensive and intensive margins of global exports of seafood in 1996-2011. The main result of this study is the differential and opposite effect of SPS and TBT measures. While SPS measures largely increase extensive margins of export and reduce intensive margins, TBTs mostly reduce exports at extensive margins and increase exports at intensive margins. Specific trade concerns (STC) have larger effect on exports than SPS and TBT notifications, both economically and statistically. Finally, there is substantial heterogeneity of response of exports to NTMs across HS six digit product lines, but the central tendency remains the same as for aggregated data.

Impacts of socioeconomic and demographic factors on household expenditure for disaggregate fish and shellfish in the United StatesCheng, Hsiang-tai January 1985 (has links)
As the popularity for seafood in the United States continues to grow, information about consumer patterns of fishery products will be a valuable aid to various groups in the seafood industry. The primary objective of this dissertation is to provide quantitative information, notably own price, income, and household size elasticity measures, about consumer behavior relating to specific fish and shellfish products.
The methodology used in this study is as follows: (1) organize and analyze at-home seafood consumption data for specific finfish and shellfish species by three product forms (canned, fresh and fresh frozen, and other prepared) from the 1981 Seafood Consumption Survey: (i) finfish -- cod, flounder (or sole), haddock, herring, mackerel, perch, pollock, salmon, sardines, snapper, tuna, whiting, total finfish, and (ii) shellfish -- clams, crabs, oysters, scallops, shrimp, and total shellfish; (2) identify and assess the factors that affect household expenditure on these products for home consumption, and (3) compare the results of this research to those from previously published works.
Price and coupon value are the dominant factors in explaining the variation of household expenditure on seafood commodities for at-home consumption. All price elasticities are negative and in the inelastic range except for fresh and fresh frozen oysters and canned tuna. These results suggest that for almost all shellfish and finfish species, unit percentage changes in product availability lead to greater than unit percentage changes in product prices. Coupon values, as expected, have significant positive impacts on household expenditures for seafood commodities for at-home consumption. Except for scallops, all shellfish products are normal goods, while the nature of the income effects for finfish products is mixed. Generally, household size elasticities are not only positive but also less than unity.
Significant differences exist in household expenditures for fishery products due to geographic region, urbanization, employment status and age of the household manager, race, and season. Finally, households spend significantly less on all categories of canned fishery products, but more on fresh and fresh frozen shellfish, at the supermarket and the grocery store than at other seafood outlets. Occupation and education of the household head and religious affiliation are not generally statistically important factors in explaining the variation in household expenditure on fish and shellfish products. / Ph.

FARMED AND WILD-CAUGHT SHRIMP IN KENTUCKY AND SOUTH CAROLINA: CONSUMER PREFERENCE FOR HOMEGROWN BY HEROES, COMMUNITY SUPPORTED FISHERY, AND OTHER QUALITY ATTRIBUTESSoley, Graham T. 01 January 2016 (has links)
As information regarding origin, production method, and environmental certifications characterize a progressing seafood market, scare analysis has been made to understand market responses. This study focuses on consumer preference for wild-caught and farm-raised shrimp with several attributes. These include the Homegrown By Heroes label and Best Aquaculture Practices certification, as well as other existing attributes including the Marine Stewardship Council and each state’s local label. Also considered are hypothetical labels including Community Supported Fishery (CSF) and National Oceanic & Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). This study surveys consumers in Kentucky and South Carolina while utilizing a choice experiment to elicit willingness-to-pay measures for these various product attributes.
Both wild-caught and farm-raised shrimp are considered since these species have significant market potential. Like previous studies, a strong preference for fresh as well as local shrimp was found. Furthermore, preference for Homegrown By Heroes was found to be highly valued by consumers, as well as the NOAA label signifying a federally operated ecolabel. Consumers were also found to value BAP and MSC certifications, two third-party agencies currently existent in the seafood market. Marketing and policy recommendations are given based on consumer willingness to pay estimates for these various seafood attributes in both states.

The Croatian Community of Southeastern Louisiana: Immigration, Assimilation and the Retention of Ethnic IdentityBourgogne, Renee Danielle 18 December 2014 (has links)
This work is a study of a community of Croatian immigrants to Southeast Louisiana in the twentieth century. Drawn from a multidisciplinary approach that included spatial analysis of settlement patterns, quantitative analysis of seafood industry data, the records of voluntary associations, and guided by the oral histories of men and women of Croatia who immigrated to Louisiana, this work reveals a community that has managed to maintain close ties despite its distribution both in urban New Orleans and rural coastal Louisiana through links created by and supportive of the state’s seafood and restaurant industries. The study points out how the custom of returning to Croatia for marriage and the retention of property in Croatia helped the group maintain links with its national and cultural origins in ways not always seen with other ethnic groups in America, pointing out the range of the immigrant experience in the United States.

Produção científica brasileira no tema \"pescado: alimento para consumo humano\" - período de 2002 a 2012 / Brazilian scientific production in seafood: food for human consumption 2002 to 2012 periodLevenhagen, Renata Savarino 19 March 2014 (has links)
O intuito deste estudo foi o de realizar uma pesquisa qualiquantitativa, documental e exploratória sobre a produção científica nacional no tema \"pescado: alimento para consumo humano\" compreendendo o período entre 2002 e 2012. Os trabalhos foram classificados em duas grandes áreas: Saúde Pública, e Processamento do Pescado. Objetivou-se identificar a participação das regiões brasileiras; o pescado mais estudado; as entidades que mais pesquisam sobre o tema (públicas ou privadas); os aspectos em que a pesquisa sobre o tema contribui para o desenvolvimento do setor, e os principais avanços identificados nesse período de estudo. O estudo concluiu que houve um aumento do número de trabalhos produzidos no tema \"pescado: alimento para consumo humano\", entre 2002 a 2012; as pesquisas desenvolvidas vem contribuindo com um grande número de trabalhos voltados à Saúde Pública, sendo que estes apresentaram principalmente pesquisas de análises microbiológicas e físico-químicas; as instituições públicas foram as que mais apresentaram pesquisas dentro do período estudado; a região que mais realizou estudos foi a Sudeste; o pescado mais estudado foi origem marinha e a espécie de pescado mais encontrada nos estudos foi a tilápia (Oreochromis niloticus); o maior número de trabalhos foi apresentado no Congresso de Higienistas de Alimentos, seguido pelo SIMCOPE e base Capes, respectivamente. Os trabalhos, no geral, foram muito semelhantes e voltados à Saúde Pública, porém o SIMCOPE demonstrou maior número de trabalhos referentes ao Processamento do Pescado. A criação do Ministério da Pesca e Aquicultura gerou um aumento de investimento, por parte do governo no setor, incentivando a produção de peixes de cativeiro, como a tilápia. / The purpose of this study was to create a qualitative, quantitative, documentary and exploratory research on scientific productions with the theme \" fish : food for human consumption.\" published between 2002 and 2012 These studies were classified into two areas: Public Health, and Fish Processing. This study aimed to identify the participation of Brazilian regions; the most studied fish; entities with more research on the topic (public or private); aspects in which research on the subject contributes to the sector development, and major advances. The study concluded that the studies on this theme are increasing ; most of the of research were related to public health , and these studies had mainly microbiological and physico- chemical analysis; public institutions were the most productive researching on this theme within the study period; the region that most studies were conducted was the Southeast; the most studied fish and seafood species of fish was tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus); the largest number of papers were presented at the Congress of Food Hygienists, followed by Capes SIMCOPE and base, respectively. The work, in general, were very similar and focused on public health, but SIMCOPE demonstrated a greater number of jobs related to fish processing. The creation of the Ministry of Fisheries and Aquaculture has generated increased investment by the government in the sector, encouraging the production of captive fish, such as tilapia.
