碩士 / 國立臺灣海洋大學 / 應用經濟研究所 / 106 / Since the increasing global trade volumes of seafood, the investigation of seafood trade and food safety have become an important issue. Due to the implementation of seafood safety regulations, zero trade might be caused. In the research, a gravity model is used to solve the problem of zero trade. The significance of these issues is assessed in regression analysis by using a gravity model of PQML to test the effects of the food safety standards on the importation of seafood. The analysis was performed for the seafood imports from 2009 to 2014. This paper will indicate the impacts of food safety regulations on seafood trade and focus on some chemical standards such as chloramphenicol, oxytetracycline, quinolones, and dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane (DDT). Moreover, this paper also discuss the food safety regulations set by countries in response to the 311 earthquake in Japan. Our major findings are as follows: firstly, the food safety regulations of drugs have negative effects on the seafood, this means that importing countries which set food safety regulations will reduce the importation of seafood. Secondly, after Japan 311 earthquake, food safety standards which imposed by importing countries resulted in some negative and statistically significant effects on the importation of seafood. Finally, the food safety standards in different region have various levels of influence.
