Subsidies, Fisheries Management, and Stock Depletion
研究了1996-2011年23个OECD国家中渔业补贴对资源存量的影响,发现补贴效果取决于类型和管理制度,建议全球补贴改革应高度选择性。
This paper investigates the impact of fishery subsidies on resource stocks in 23 OECD countries during 1996–2011. Results show that the effect of subsidies depends on the type of subsidy and the management regime. Within this sample, cost-reducing subsidies have no effect on stocks if management is individual quota based but have negative effects if management uses traditional input/output restrictions. Subsidies for improving fishery management and infrastructure produce beneficial effects on stocks under traditional management, but no effect with individual quota–based management. These results suggest global efforts to reform fishery subsidies should be carried out in a highly selective manner. <i></i>
