Bord Iascaigh Mhara 2019 - Bio-economic Model to assess the impact of the Landing Obligation

To develop a bioeconomic model to simulate the activity of the Irish fishing fleet and describe as accurately as possible the interactions between mixed and single fisheries in which they operate. The purpose of the model is to provide robust estimates of the impact (economic, technical and social) of proposed quota changes for stocks of relevance to the Irish fishing fleet. By simulating mixed fisheries, the model will account for the effect of choke species resulting from the implementation of the Landing Obligation on distinct fleet segments. The model will also be able to incorporate information on gear selectivity trials or avoidance measures to simulate any potential improvement in terms of extending the fishing season of affected fleets. No Tender responses received Contract subsequently awarded by direct negotiation to Centre for the Environment Fisheries and Aquaculture Science (CEFAS)/Marine Institute.
