Title: OPTION VALUE OF HARVESTING: THEORY AND EVIDENCE
Authors: Li, Eric A.L.
Issue Date: 1998
Abstract: Real options analysis shows that fishery harvesting becomes more conservative, and catch efficiency is raised, when exploitation is subject to irreversibility, uncertainty, and delay for a cooperative profit-maximizing fleet. With Rock Lobster catch and effort data from Fisheries Victoria of the Department of Natural Resources and Environment in Australia, the options-augmented surplus-yield model is tested and compared with the performance of its conventional profit-maximizing and biological maximum-sustainable-yield counterparts.
