Última The social and economic impact of aquaculture : a European review ArchiMer Neiland, A.e.; Shaw, S.a.; Bailly, Denis. This paper undertakes a preliminary evaluation of the social and economic impact of aquaculture from both empirical and theoretical standpoints. Drawing initially on background information collected for the Commission of the European Communities (CEC) in a recent study by the European Association of Fisheries Economists (EAFE), a number of important indicators and trends (e.g. production, employment, market structure) are examined which indicate that aquaculture is of increasing significance in many regions. Whilst some socio-economic information is available for ail European countries, this information base is weak in comparison to that for biological and technical aspects of aquaculture and does not permit a comprehensive evaluation at the present time....

Ano: 1991 URL: http://archimer.ifremer.fr/doc/1991/publication-3705.pdf MIGRANT FARM WORKERS ON VIRGINIA'S EASTERN SHORE: AN ANALYSIS OF ECONOMIC IMPACTS AgEcon Sills, Erin O.; Alwang, Jeffrey Roger; Driscoll, Paul J.. The economic impact of migrant farmworkers on an agriculture-dependent region is investigated. The direct effects of inflows of state and federal dollars for migrant services, and production of high-valued commodities are computed. Indirect and induced effects are modelled through the use of the IMPLAN input output model. Various alternatives to migrant labor are investigated, including production of less labor-intensive crops, acreage retirement, and contract H2A workers. Migrants are found to create substantial economic activity on the Eastern Shore of Virginia.

Ano: 1994 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/15421 THE IMPACT OF KNAPWEED ON MONTANA'S ECONOMY AgEcon Hirsch, Steven A.; Leitch, Jay A.. The economic impact of three invasive, exotic weeds--diffuse, spotted, and Russian knapweed (Centaurea diffusa, C. maculosa, and Acroptilon repens)--on Montana's economy was estimated using a procedure developed for another invasive weed species. Published data and that from a survey of county weed boards were used to estimate direct negative impacts of over $14 million annually due to infestation of over 2 million acres of rangeland and wildland. This amounts to about $10.63 on each infested grazing land acre and $3.95 on each infested wildland acre. Direct plus secondary economic impacts, estimated using an input-output model, are about $42 million annually, which could support over 500 jobs in the state's economy. This first approximation suggests...

Ano: 1996 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/23289 ECONOMIC IMPACT OF RAILROAD ABANDONMENT: CARRINGTON-TO-TURTLE LAKE RAIL LINE; SUMMARY AgEcon Honeyman, Joel S.; Bangsund, Dean A.; Leistritz, F. Larry. The Carrington-to-Turtle Lake rail line serves five agricultural shippers in a four county area in central North Dakota. Service on the line has been affected by recent embargoes, floods, and poor, deteriorating track conditions. The line is a strong candidate for abandonment as efforts to rehabilitate the line have lacked financial support. Prior to this study, a benefit/cost study, which compares benefits and costs of a rail line reconstruction, was performed for the rail line in an attempt to secure financial assistance for rehabilitation. Railroad abandonment impacts rural communities and local economies in a variety of ways. Businesses that use rail for transportation usually experience a change in their shipping options.

Ano: 1996 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/23100 ASSESSING THE ECONOMIC IMPACTS OF NEW OR RECENTLY EXPANDED MANUFACTURING AND EXPORTABLE SERVICE FIRMS IN NORTH DAKOTA AgEcon Coon, Randal C.; Leistritz, F. Larry. This study examines the economic impacts that have resulted from new or recently expanded North Dakota firms in three sectors (agricultural processing, other manufacturing, and exportable services), addressing such dimensions as number of jobs created, compensation paid to employees, and the expenditures made to entities within the local area and elsewhere in the state. Information was obtained from a questionnaire completed by 42 new or recently expanded firms. The responding firms had added an average of 29 jobs from 1990 to 1996. General labor was the job category accounting for the largest number of workers overall (52 percent), followed by skilled labor (16 percent) and management (12 percent). About 65 percent of the firms' new jobs have been...

Ano: 1997 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/23248 ECONOMIC CONTRIBUTION OF THE SUGARBEET INDUSTRY TO NORTH DAKOTA AND MINNESOTA AgEcon Bangsund, Dean A.; Leistritz, F. Larry. Agricultural industries in small geographical areas with limited acreage tend to be overlooked by those not associated with the growing region or industry. Sugarbeets continue to be produced in a relatively small geographic area and with relatively limited acreage in North Dakota and Minnesota. These factors, along with continued debate over policies affecting domestic sugar industries and recent industry expansions, help justify a continued assessment of the economic importance of the sugarbeet industry to the regional economy. Revenues from sugarbeet production and expenditures by processors to North Dakota and Minnesota entities in fiscal 1997 represented the direct economic impacts from the industry. Expenditure information was provided by...

Ano: 1998 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/23450 ECONOMIC CONTRIBUTION OF THE BARLEY INDUSTRY IN NORTH DAKOTA, SOUTH DAKOTA, AND MINNESOTA AgEcon Bangsund, Dean A.; Leistritz, F. Larry. Barley is an important crop in the upper Great Plains, yet its economic importance has not been quantified. Expenditures and returns from crop production, grain handling, transportation, and processing activities represented the direct economic impacts from the barley industry. Secondary economic impacts were estimated using an input-output model. Barley production in the tri-state region averaged 3.3 million planted acres and 165 million bushels from 1994 through 1996. North Dakota had about 2.5 million acres. Barley production was estimated to generate $446 million in direct economic impacts. Total (direct and secondary) annual economic impacts from barley production were estimated at $1.2 billion. Annual direct impacts from handling barley at...

Ano: 1998 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/47498 Economic Impact of a Ban on the Use of Over-the-Counter Antibiotics in U.S. Swine Rations AgEcon Hayes, Dermot J.; Jensen, Helen H.; Backstrom, Lennart; Fabiosa, Jacinto F.. Antibiotic drugs are currently used in 90 percent of starter feeds, 75 percent of grower feeds, more than 50 percent of finishing feeds and at least 20 percent of sow feeds (USDA/APHIS). A ban on the use of feed-grade antibiotics would lead to changes in production processes and practices in production of pork, and hence would have an economic impact on the U.S. pork industry and pork market. This study considers the economic effects of a ban in pork production, with no change of regulation on other meats. The analysis uses a set of technical assumptions that are based in large part on a historical analysis of how the Swedish ban influenced the Swedish pork industry to anticipate the potential economic effects. A range of cases is examined. The cases use...

Ano: 1999 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/18667 CONTRIBUTION OF HOSPITALS TO NORTH DAKOTA'S ECONOMY AgEcon Bangsund, Dean A.; Leistritz, F. Larry. Community hospital administrators in North Dakota were surveyed to determine the amount and type of expenditures made to North Dakota entities in 1997. Estimates of net revenues retained within the state were also solicited. Forty-two of the 44 community hospitals in the state responded. Economic activity from hospitals in the state was divided into two groups--community hospitals and all hospitals. In-state expenditures for Federal and Native American facilities were generated from survey results. Expenditures and returns (direct impacts) from community hospitals in the state were about $832 million in 1997. When the six military, Veteran, state, and tribal hospitals were included, industry-wide direct impacts increased to $904 million. Input-output...

Agriculture remains a major component in the North Dakota economy, yet many activities within the agricultural industry remain unquantified. The purpose of this study was to measure the economic contribution of the soybean industry to the North Dakota economy. Expenditures and returns from soybean production, grain handling, and transportation were estimated to calculate the direct economic impacts from soybean activities. Secondary economic impacts were estimated using the North Dakota Input-Output Model. Since 1995, soybean acreage in the United States has increased substantially in nontraditional row-crop regions, such as those found in some parts of North Dakota. Soybean acreage in the state has increased 135 percent since 1995, and 210 percent... Tipo: Working or Discussion Paper Palavras-chave: Soybeans; North Dakota; Economic impact; Production Economics.

Ano: 1999 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/23467 ECONOMIC IMPACT OF OUT-SOURCING FROM STATE AGENCIES IN BISMARCK TO RURAL NORTH DAKOTA AgEcon Sell, Randall S.; Leistritz, F. Larry. This investigation of the potential savings to the State of North Dakota because of reduced office space and labor costs and alternatively, the potential benefits to rural communities of increasing employment by adding some state agency jobs was stimulated by Senate Concurrent Resolution No. 4006, which directed the Legislative Council to study state agency office space needs to determine the feasibility and desirability of transferring state agencies or state employees to rural areas. The objective of this analysis was two-fold; (1) determine the cost difference of operating offices in Bismarck versus rural communities and (2) determine the local/regional economic impacts of the potential jobs. The results indicated that development of satellite data...

Ano: 1999 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/23082 THE ECONOMIC IMPACT OF THE MERCEDES BENZ INVESTMENT ON THE STATE OF ALABAMA AgEcon Kebede, Ellene; Ngandu, Mudiayi Sylvain. As part of its strategy to attract new businesses, in 1994 the State of Alabama won the Mercedes Benz bid to establish an automobile assembly plant in Vance, Tuscaloosa County, Alabama at the cost of $222 to $253 million worth of incentives. The study assessed the economic impact of the Mercedes Benz investment using IMPLAN. The IMPLAN industry code 49, industrial construction, and industry code 384, motor vehicle, were used to project the impact of the investment for the construction and production phases respectively. The results from four scenarios indicated that the investment would generate sizable direct and indirect employment, income, output, and tax revenue for the state economy. From the estimated revenue, the pay-out period for the cost of the...

La connaissance aussi bien que la gestion des écosystèmes marins suppose de disposer d'un réferentiel d'indicateurs et de mesures capable d'informer sur l'état du milieu. Le zonage, c'est-à-dire le découpage en zones géographiques, participe de la construction de ce réferentiel, notamment lorsqu'il permet ensuite la mise en place de réseaux de mesure pour la surveillance de la qualité du milieu littoral, dans un souci d'observation pour la gestion opérationnelle de ce milieu (politiques d'occupation des espaces, usages différents des espaces côtiers). Le principe du zonage est ancien (Morel, 1996) et peut varier en complexité selon qu'une seule variable descriptive est utilisée, comme dans le cas du zonage thématique basé sur la géographie physique et...
