 Other measures of the length of vessels are: Waterline length (LWL) which refers to the length of the designed waterline of the vessel. This measure is used in determining certain properties of a vessel for example, the water displacement; Length... More

 Gross value of landings The gross value of the landings is normally collected together with landing statistics (e.g. from fish auctions or from sales slips). In order to establish the link to the catch statistics (refer catch and landings) these data... More

 Employment Employment in fisheries should be collected in sex-disaggregated form. A further note should be made that the term fisher (refer also ILO-2012) should not only include those operating from fishing vessels but also those fishers operating land-based fishing gears... More

 Total revenue Total revenue is composed of several variables. Gross value of landings - part of the core variables (see description above). Revenue from leasing out quota or other fishing rights where individual transferable quotas (ITQ) or similar systems have established... More

 Total Costs Total costs is composed of several variables. Cost data can be obtained from the financial records of the fishing enterprises and these data are mostly difficult to obtain. Even when such data are available, they are often protected by... More
