| Title: | A Note on Optimal Effort in the Maldivian Tuna Fishery |
| Authors: | Campbell, Harry F.
Lindner, Robert K. |
| Issue Date: | 1989 |
| Series/Report no.: | Marine Resource Economics
Vol. 6 No. 2 |
| Abstract: | This note argues that spatial considerations and travel costs should be taken into account in devising tax/subsidy regulations for island-based tuna fisheries. In particular, the effect of a landings tax on distant fishing grounds should be considered when setting the level of the tax. A fuel subsidy is suggested as a means of offsetting the impact of the landings tax on marginal grounds. |
