DocumentReport of the joint mission to plan development of the Sardinella fisheries in the Bali Strait 1977
Also available in:
No results found.This report has been prepared by an FAO/IOP Mission to East Java, Indonesia, as a result of its investigation of the development prospects of the fisheries for Indian oil sardine (Sardinella longiceps) in the Bali Strait. The technical details of the present fishery are dealt with, including the economics of the various operations, landing facilities and marketing and processing arrangements. The fishery has expanded considerably in recent years through the introduction of a large number of purs e seiners, a development which, given the limited nature of resources, now threaten the traditional fisheries which provide a living for a large number of fishermen. The Mission recommends that no more purse seiners be brought in until investigation of the resource shows whether or not it can sustain heavier fishing. Detailed proposals for the technical improvement of the existing craft and gear are presented and recommendations made with respect to the development of the infrastructure and the improvement of marketing operations. Credit facilities and institutional changes needed to facilitate these improvements are recommended. -

No Thumbnail AvailableBook (series)Fisheries credit programmes and revolving loan funds: case studies 1989
Also available in:
No results found.While it is widely acknowledged that the availability of institutional credit is an important pre-condition for the further development of the small-scale fisheries sector of many developing countries, the lack of well-documented information with regard to the reasons for the success or failure of fisheries credit schemes impedes progress in the design and operation of new fisheries credit programmes and revolving loan funds. In order to gain more information in this vital area, the Fishery I ndustries Division of FAO initiated a series of case studies in Asia, Africa, the Middle East, Latin America and the Caribbean on successful fishery credit programmes and revolving loan funds. Successful was defined by an over-all positive socio-economic impact, the full utilization of credits for their intended purpose, achievement of disbursement targets and satisfactory loan recovery. Each region is represented by two or three case studies, selected on the basis of various institutional a nd operational circumstances, in order to cover all major settings of fisheries credit operations. The case studies presented in this volume reflect the opinions of their authors who in some cases have been closely associated with the design and implementation of the credit programmes. Some editorial changes have been made to facilitate presentation and comparison, but the substance of the studies and the conclusions reached are those of the authors.
