Abstract In contrast to the increasing aquaculture production of mussels worldwide, in European Union (EU) has shown a decreasing trend over last two decades. Aquaculture EU peaked late 1990s at more than 600 000 tonnes; by 2016, volume had dropped 20% 480 tonnes. As mussel represents ⅓ production, this decrease is an important contributor stagnation aquaculture. Previous studies have suggested diseases, lack seed (spat), and low profitability as main causes decrease. study, we investigate...
Abstract Aquaculture is a rapidly growing food production technology, but there are significant concerns related to its environmental impact and adverse social effects. We examine aquaculture outcomes in three pillars of sustainability framework by analyzing data collected using the Performance Indicators. Using this approach, comparable has been for 57 systems worldwide on 88 metrics that measure social, economic, or outcomes. first relationships among then analyze performance technology...
Through its structural funds the European Union (EU) has invested €1.17 billion in aquaculture sector over period 2000–2014. In addition, EU plans to spend a further €1.72 on 2014–2020 through Maritime and Fisheries Fund (EMFF). Despite this support, production not taken off. Indeed, volume 2016 was 8% less than 2000, while global increased by more 150%. These investments aim make successful competitive focusing quality, health safety, as well as, eco-friendly provide consumers with...
Social dimension is a fundamental element in the evaluation of initiatives and policies that are demanded promoted by public private organizations as well society whole. Thus, there thriving interest social impact research, especially from point view its measurement valuation. In this work, we explored rising attention on concept to identify salient agents field categorize conceptual structure research. To achieve this, used evaluative relational techniques combining traditional bibliometric...
The study uses firm level panel data to determine performance-leverage relationships among Mediterranean aquaculture production firms in Croatia, Italy, Spain, France and Greece. A stochastic frontier function is used define performance through efficiency estimates. multilevel internal instrument variable approach employed identify the causal between leverage. Our results show that technical has been increasing across all over period 2008–2016. agency-cost hypothesis holds such leverage an...
The US is the world's largest seafood importer by value, with an increasing share of imports composed farmed seafood. Despite numerous policy initiatives, production and growth in aquaculture sector limited, there a significant literature discussing potential explanations. In this paper recent success imported branzino used to show that market not constraint. Branzino portion-sized white-fleshed fish primarily Mediterranean, no obvious equivalents produced US. Since turn century, have grown...
Teaching innovation entails constantly adapting to evolving learning environments and diverse audiences. University educators have generated a plethora of materials accommodate various modes instruction, such as distance learning, blended or synchronous asynchronous teaching systems, facing multitude profiles study techniques in classroom. This diversity led us propose the same content from business administration course different formats: text-based, graphics-based audio-based materials....
The EU aquaculture industry is a politically prioritized as shown in the EU's Farm to Fork Strategy. political objectives include biological, economic and social sustainability of industry. However, while lot attention has been paid importance environmental impact from sector, there less focus on dimension. This paper contributes development dimension by providing baseline employment structure sector. done producing first coherent overview sector presenting demographic information gender,...
There have been a number of indications strong negative impacts Covid-19 and the preventive measures associated with pandemic for all food sectors. However, there is increasing evidence that picture quite nuanced where Covid related are creating challenges some opportunities others. In this paper we investigate on aquaculture sector in European Union using two approaches; survey industry representatives experts assess key economic indicators allowing positive as well impacts, recently...
Aquaculture is considered a high-risk industry in which the heterogeneity of productions hinders development and application risk management. However, sources have still received little attention aquaculture research. The present study aims to provide framework main perceived by producers. Firstly, we conceptualize different dimensions typologies risks. Then, integrate into comprehensive based on review literature providing empirical evidence producers' perceptions countries productions....
The purpose of this work is to analyze the differences in profitability between European aquaculture firms Nordic and Mediterranean-EU regions, as well factors that are relevant explain these differences. In addition traditional proposed by theory among such size, efficiency, or capital structure, we also include analysis strategies product differentiation diversification through vertical integration. A sample regions were operating over 2012–2019 period identified Orbis database selected...
Abstract The economic performance of gilthead seabream, Sparus aurata , aquaculture in Mediterranean countries is not homogeneous despite the availability a universalized technology and absence trade barriers. Differences competitiveness among facilities result, part, from environmental factors, which are conditioned by geographical location facility. This article aims to identify analyze competitive advantages derived different conditions seabream production has been developed along Sea. A...
This article presents the results of a price transmission analysis in fresh wild fish market Spain. Value chains hake, anchovy and mackerel, were studied two alternative methodologies undertaken, one based structural models for agricultural markets other analyzing cointegration across prices at different levels value chain. For domestic seafood production, perfect competitive framework could be rejected, no along chain was found. imports, increased due to power exercised by traders on...
Sea cage farming of seabream and seabass is the most important form aquaculture production in Mediterranean Sea. Despite continuous global growth demand, economic performance companies has not followed same trend. In recent years, have faced successive periods market instability, with high volatility supply prices that strongly affected their operational margins. regional importance this industry, only a handful studies examined these farms. paper, we investigate technical efficiency scale...
