    Legal and institutional aspects of the management of fisheries in the Bangladesh exclusive economic zone 1979

    In 1974 the Government of Bangladesh declared a 200-mile EEZ, although no action was taken by the fisheries authorities at the time to set down detailed legal controls over the management of fisheries in that zone. In August 1978, however, the Bangladesh Gov. made initial enquiries regarding the possibility of legal assistance being provided by FAO in adapting its laws to cover foreign fishing operations in its EEZ. Because Bangladesh had earlier in 1978 signed a joint venture agreement with Tha iland there was expressed an urgent need for assistance of this king. As a result, an initial visit by a FAO headquarters staff member to Bangladesh was arranged for the period 12-15 Sept. 1978, to assess the type and scope of assistance required. Several estimates of the fishery resources in the Bay of Bengal have been made. From these surveys it was possible to identify three major fishing grounds which are known as “South patches”, “Middle ground” and “Swatch of no ground”.

    Based on a review of existing resource data and past fishing experience in the Zone, the report recommends licensing of foreign tuna long-lining and pelagic trawling, subject to annual review, as well as a two-year license to a pole-and-line skipjack fishing company. A proposal is made for the upgrading of indigenous fishing. A series of questions posed by the Government concerning legal aspects of the Zone are answered, including statements of international law and the domestic law of other cou ntries regarding regulation of foreign vessels in the Zone. The mission staff visited the Republic of the Seychelles from 5 to 10 March 1978.

    Emissions due to agriculture

    The FAOSTAT emissions database is composed of several data domains covering the categories of the IPCC Agriculture, Forestry and Other Land Use (AFOLU) sector of the national GHG inventory. Energy use in agriculture is additionally included as relevant to emissions from agriculture as an economic production sector under the ISIC A statistical classification, though recognizing that, in terms of IPCC, they are instead part of the Energy sector of the national GHG inventory. FAO emissions estimates are available over the period 1961–2018 for agriculture production processes from crop and livestock activities. Land use emissions and removals are generally available only for the period 1990–2019. This analytical brief focuses on overall trends over the period 2000–2018.
