Productivity and efficiency analysis have gained substantial attention in many industries
over the last two decades, and stochastic frontier analysis has been one of the most popular …

Capacity reduction programmes, in the form of buybacks or decommissioning, have had
relatively widespread application in fisheries in the US, Europe and Australia. A common …

The degree to which individual species can be targeted will influence how quotas are set in
multi-species fisheries managed through individual transferable quotas (ITQs). In this paper …

In this paper, we estimate a multi-output distance function for two North Sea fleet segments
and derive output elasticities of substitution to examine the potential for changing catch …

This study examines the impact of individual fishing quotas (IFQs) on the technical efficiency
(TE) and composition of the Gulf of Mexico red snapper commercial fishing fleet. Employing …

A vast body of literature on fisheries efficiency, productivity and fisheries efficiency-related
topics exists. This study applies a bibliometric analysis to review a sample of 183 scientific …

Production economics is important to the economic analysis and public regulation of fishing
industries in order to address the market failure associated with a common renewable …

In the estimation of multiple output technologies in a primal approach, the main question is
how to handle the multiple outputs. Often, an output distance function is used, where the …

We use a stochastic production frontier model to investigate the presence of heterogeneous
production and its impact on fleet capacity and capacity utilization in a multi-species fishery …

In this study, we estimate an output distance function in the context of a multi-output and
multi-input production technology by stochastic frontier techniques. Unbalanced panel data …
