"Enhanced Disaggregation of the Fishery Sector for Policy Simulation in CGE Models"
by Lim, Byeong-ho


Abstract
The production activities of economy involve primary production factors such as labor, land, and capital, in addition to intermediate inputs, and resulting into total outputs. The production activities in the fisheries sector have also been analyzed from this perspective. However, when examined in detail, it would be necessary to define and break down the production factor in the fisheries sector, both in terms of its definition and its input components. The difference in production factors between the fisheries sector and the general economy is that, instead of using land, the fisheries sector acquires resources from the sea.

However, the fisheries sector is transitioning from capture fisheries to aquaculture, and it is expected that maintaining capture fisheries will become increasingly difficult in Asian countries (FAO, 2024). To analyze the economic effects in the fisheries sector, it is essential to consider this shift from capture fisheries to aquaculture. Additionally, the interdependence between the fisheries and other sectors is gradually deepening. Changes in the production of fish would influence the variation in processed fish, and concurrently, there would be changes in the production of related sectors using fish and processed fish as intermediate.

This study reviewed the methods for creating a database to establish a model that distinguishes between aquaculture and capture fisheries. Unlike capture fisheries, aquaculture focuses on specific fishery species, necessitating detailed categorization of products (FAO, 2024). If fishery resources are split by production method (aquaculture or capture fisheries) and species, the economic relationships between the fisheries and other sectors could be analyzed more accurately.
