Abstract: Fuel price increases have been identified as a major factor explaining the low economic performance of fishing fleets. Fishers have reacted by reducing costs and increasing fuel efficiency of their vessels when possible, and by reducing the days spent at sea or ceasing activity. However, fuel prices explain only part of the story. We analyzed the evolution of fuel prices, fish prices, fishing activity and productivity over a 14 year period (2000-13) for the Catalan fleet (Spanish Mediterranean). Most fish pric… Show more

“…Curiously, little is known about the impact of a large reduction in fishing effort (either through fewer trawlers or fewer fishing days) on fish markets as well as on the economic situation of fisheries (Guillen and Maynou, 2016;Sabatella et al, 2017). In this paper, we focus on this issue using the following natural experiment.…”
