Economic Baseline and Characterization of U.S. Gulf of Mexico Dockside Seafood Dealers.

摘要

The study originated as an initiative of the GSMFC’s Economics Program, in collaboration with the Socioeconomic Research and Development Section of the LDWF. For this maiden economic data collection effort for Gulf dockside seafood dealers, a limited amount of information was collected using a mail survey in order to subsequently conduct financial and economic analysis. Contact information for Gulf seafood dealers was derived from license databases provided by the relevant marine resource agencies in each of the Gulf states.
