The landings obligation in view of different management regimes

The landings obligation in view of different management regimes

Using a simple two-fleet two-species bio-economic model (ToyFish) to illustrate relative economic trade-offs of introducing the landings obligation in fisheries managed with ITQs.

The results of this generic model will point:

  1. towards possible trends in economic outcomes of fisheries under the landings obligation
  2. detail the understanding of the results of more complex case specific models
