| 总结: | The over all objective of the study is to examine the net
welfare effects of an imposition of some fishing regulations on
trawlers in the Gulf of Thailand. The factors affecting supply of
and demand for trawler catches, such as, trash fish and other
catches are also examined. The income effects of
change in the price of commodity was assumed to be zero. The
change in consumer surplus and producer surplus were used as the
measurements of change in net social welfare. It is assumed that a
unit gain or loss in producer surplus is equal to a unit gainor
loss in consumer surpluse from trawler fishery after the imposition of regulation son trawler catches and fishing efforts were evaluated.
Ordinary least squares (OLS),twos tageleast squares (2SLS) ,
and first order auto regressive techniques CARl) were used to test
the empiral results.Monthly data (1979-1982) on trawelatches
and trawling efforts in the Gulf of Thailand, prices of trawler
catches and fish meal,and price index of meats other than sea foods
are used for the analysis. |
