Study
analyzes fishers’ motivations for fisheries management
10 April 2008 (A. Sia/FISH Project) – Given
a choice between economic, social and ecological objectives
in fisheries management, majority of fishers would predictably
be more likely swayed by economic than social or ecological
motivations, a 2007
study shows. But surprisingly, a considerable number – up
to 39% -- would likely support a program or policy that maximizes
ecological objectives. Full
Story.
