Model structure
Individual efficiency
DI – input oriented distance
from the frontier
E – effort [days at sea]
yi – harvest of species i
{cod, herring, sprat, other
species}
Bi,t – harvestable biomass
od species i {cod, herring,
sprat}
k – capital as power of main
engine [kW]
vn,t – stochastic error term
un – time-invariant, firmspecific inefficiency term
Properties:
- symetry
- homogeneity

πn,t – individual profit of firm n at

cv – variable cost per unit of effort
e – effort
Y – vector of harvest
u – inefficiency term
cf – fixed costs
if πn,t < 0 -> harvest activity not profitable

Simulation
Two TAC scenarios
BAU
COD:
- Current management plan
- target F=0.3, critical F of 0.6
- TAC change +/- 15%
PELAGIC SPECIES:
- F constant
- TAC change +/- 15%
Alternative management
ALL SPECIES:
- Multispecies MSY (ICES 2013)
- TAC change +/- 15%
Starting values – based on 2012 ICES estimates
Model scalled to Polish share based on EU TAC shares (~30%)

•
•
12
Benefits from alternative management scenario
(higher TACs):
Conservative TAC plan in some cases may not be the optimum solution
given the capacity is regulated and there are strongly established species
interactions
Better flexibility with respect to harvest choice implies higher pofits
Importance of entry/exit regulations
Adaptive management adjusting quota annually implies no risk of
overexploitation (sensitivity analysis results) that may be a result of faster
efficiency increase

Discussion
WHY VESSELS MAY HAVE LIMITED INCENTIVES
TO EXIT?
* Under succesfully carried cod management plan,
IVQs are expected to be increasing
* The model assumes very conservative
technological change – 1%
[efficiency increase by 1% per year]
* Sunk cost in form of investment in vessel
* Possibility to introduce ITQs in the future
[if grandfathered, potentially valuable asset]
* changing prices

prefi,a - harvest preference or selectivity for species i at age a
Hi,t – total harvest of species i at time t

Predation mortality
Predation (functional responses according to Heikinheimo (2011) with
preferences based on cod stomach content from Tomczak et al. (2012)
pi,a,b,t - number of fish of species i at age a eaten by cod
population of age b in year t
λi,a,b - relative consumption preference of cod at age b over
species i at age a
xc,b,t - number of cod at age b at time t
Cb - maximum consumption of herring and sprat by one cod

Dsh - half saturation constant
n - functional response constant
