Study on the Feasibility of Integration Management betweenSet- net Fishery and Cage Aquaculture in Taiwan / 台灣發展定置網漁業與海洋箱網養殖共同經營之可行性研究

碩士 / 國立高雄海洋科技大學 / 漁業生產與管理研究所 / 99 / Two groups of farmers were interviewed, one focused on farmers whom have experience in running marine farm which is integration management between set-net and cage aquaculture (this type of farming as marine farming is adderssed hereafter); the other group is set-net owners. Data used for case analysis were collected from interview groups in order to understand the economic benefit, productivity versus cost as well as problems faced by the sampler of farmers during farming periods.
Questionnaires were used for data collection method and analyzed by using Microsoft Office Excel and SPSS10.0.
The study shows:
1. Farming equipments can be used by both types of farming hence reduce fixed costs on running the farm by sharing them. Equipments including: operation boats and Peripheral equipped with machines for tools. Variable costs such as larvae, fish feed and human resources can be drawn from set-net therefore can save on initial investment capital.
2. 72.3% of set-net owners interviewed have more than 20 years experience in managing and running set-net fishery, they are also familiar with local coastal environment where fish farms are situated. 61.1% of them believe fishing location of set-net is suitable for marine farming.
3. When asking set-net owners to rank problems faced by marine faming development, they gave Natural Disasters such as typhoons, seasonal storms highest ranking. Followed by Investment Capital and Difficulty in Applying Farming License. The third higher ranking is Farming Skills.
4. 14 set-net owners (77.8%) believe economic benefit can be gained through marine farming, it indicates that most of interviewers believe by combining these two types of fisheries economic advantages will be achieved.
5. Based on data drawn from sample farmer, it shows set-net operation will not be affected by combining with marine cage farming. 14 set-net owners (77.8%) reached the same conclusion as they believe there will be no negative impact on their operation.
6. When asked what sort of support will be the most beneficial for set-net owners, they choose Capital Loan (42.9%), followed by Farming Skills (22.4%), Farming License Application (18.4%) and the last is Production and Marketing Regulation (16.3%). From the result, we can conclude that vast investment capital is required for setting up marine cage farming.
7. Apart from human issues, most of interviewed set-net owners (61.1%) are willing to corporate with cage farming in order to set up marine farms.
