Book (stand-alone)Technical reportInternational commercial fishing management regime safety study: synthesis of case reports 2016
Also available in:
No results found.Commercial fishing is a dangerous occupation. The degree of danger is in part a function of the options of fishers’ choices about the risks they take, such as the weather they fish in, the boats they use, the rest they obtain, and the safety gear they carry. How fisheries are managed may affect the options of fishers and trade-offs as they make these choices – thus affecting the safety of the fishery. FAO contracted researchers to prepare country-specific case studies on fisheries management and safety in 16 countries. Each case study was reviewed to identify evidence supporting, or refuting, one or more of four hypotheses regarding potential effects of fisheries management policies on fishing safety. Where evidence was found for a hypothesis, the strength of the evidence was then evaluated. This publication presents the results and analyses of the case studies as well as conclusions and recommendations. -
Book (series)Technical reportReport of the National Seminar on the Reduction and Management of Commercial Fishing Capacity in Thailand. Cha-Am, Thailand, 11-14 May 2004. 2005

No results found.The National Seminar on the Reduction and Management of Commercial Fishing Capacity in Thailand took place from 11 to 14 May 2004 in Cha-Am, Thailand. Participants included senior officials from the Department of Fisheries and other relevant Government departments, representatives of associations of the commercial fishing industry, leaders of small-scale coastal fishers, national and international resource persons and representatives of bilateral and multilateral agencies. The marine captur e fisheries sector is more capital intensive than is appropriate for Thailand's resource endowment, and there is an urgent need for fishing capacity reduction for improved fi sheries management and protection and conservation of fish habitats and other threatened coastal resources. Failure to achieve this will have serious consequences for the most vulnerable people in coastal communities, fish consumers and society at large.

Book (stand-alone)Technical studySoil and plant testing and analysis as a basis of fertilizer recommendations
FAO Soils Bulletin 38/2
1980Also available in:
No results found.General principles of plant nutrition don't furnish the concrete information, necessary for practical treatments in a given situation. Thus, the questions arise which parameters must be considered an how can they be determined. This leads to consider the concepts of nutrients diagnosis, as well as the methodology and the corresponding equipment and instrumentation, for putting it into practice. The question may arise whether plant or soil analysis should be used for diagnosis crop nutrient requ irements and making fertilizer recommendations.Both methods may be complementary, not competitive and the laboratories should be in the possibility to carry out both types analysis. It is recommendable to start soil analysis prior to plant testing.There are many possibilities and methods for testing soil chemical and nutrient properties. It is indeed highly recommended to agree on a minimum of uniformity of methodology.
