Book (stand-alone)Methodologies for assessing socio-economic benefits of European inland recreational fisheries 2010
Also available in:
No results found.The EIFAC Methodologies for assessing socio-economic benefits of European inland recreational fisheries were prepared in 2009 by the European Inland Fisheries Advisory Commission (EIFAC) Ad Hoc Working Party on Socio-Economic Aspects of Inland Fisheries. EIFAC considered that the implementation of fisheries policy and management would benefit from a more compatible, comparable and scientifically rigorous application of benefit evaluation methods. To reach this goal, the Working Party prepared gu idelines to conduct surveys focusing on social and economic benefits of inland recreational fishing in EIFAC member countries. Due to institutional aspects and management traditions, these guidelines are confined to Europe. By means of this Occasional Paper, the Working Party tries to highlight both the methodological and practical viewpoints when assessing the monetary value of social net benefits or other societal benefits from recreational fishing. The purpose is to make societal and economic valuation more accessible and to give insight to best current practices and black spots related to these tools. -
Book (stand-alone)Report of the EIFAC ad hoc Working Party on Handling of Fishes in Fisheries and Aquaculture. Utrecht, The Netherlands, 24-26 March 2004 (Published only online) 2008
Also available in:
No results found.This document presents the results of the EIFAC Ad Hoc Working Party on Handling of Fishes in Fisheries and Aquaculture, including the report of its workshop held from 24 to 26 March 2004 in Utrecht, Netherlands. The welfare of fishes has become a subject of attention in recent years. Concerns have been raised about the potential for infringed fish welfare in fisheries, aquaculture and fisheries research. The Ad Hoc Working Party agreed that handling of fishes must be carried out in a responsible way. Fishes show reactions to injurious stimuli. These stimuli result in physiological stress responses. Depending on the duration and intensity of the exposure to the stressor, the stress response varies from acute to chronic. Handling causing injuries and damage to the fishes should be avoided in fisheries, aquaculture and fisheries research. To ensure the welfare of fish in commercial fisheries, recreational fisheries and aquaculture, sufficient legislation and regulat ion is necessary. All EIFAC member countries discussed in this report have legislation and regulations concerning animal welfare. However, some of the legislation and regulations do not provide specific attention to fish welfare.
