Abstract

Highlight Research



  1. Economic performance of commercial fishing industry in Pahang State, East Coast of Peninsular Malaysia.

  2. Comparison of accounting profit between the two prominent fishing gear types: trawlers and purse seine in Pahang State

  3. Comparison of accounting profit between the different zones of fishing operations by the trawlers and purse seine

  4. Research findings showed that trawlers give more profit than purse seine vessels in Pahang State and overcapacity and over exploitation is distinctly found in Pahang State commercial fishing industry.

  5. This study suggested that other analysis such as biological performance by this study area should be done in future coupled with the analysis of impact of management policies on the sustainability of the fishery.


Abstract


Marine capture fisheries in Malaysia plays prominent role in economic growth and commercial fisheries makes great contribution to country's economy. The commercial fishing industry in East Coast of Peninsular Malaysia are mainly operated by trawlers and purse seines which rises a major concern in managing and achieving the goal of sustainable fishery. This study aimed to account the differences of accounting profit level in commercial fishing industry in Pahang State, East Coast of Peninsular Malaysia. In this study, comparison of accounting profits using revenue and profit approach among trawl and purse seine fishery in two different zones: Zone C (offshore) and Zone C2 (deep sea) was carried out based on the intensive survey on fishing capacity and other economic factors. The survey was carried out with the commercial fishermen and total respondents of 156 fishers at landing port. The result showed that trawlers incurred low cost yet provided higher profit than doses by purse seine. Moreover, there are more trawlers vessels operating in the Pahang state fishing ground and the open access nature of the fishery like larger profit invites more effort to use in the fishery which is leading to the over exploitation of fishery resources and threatening the sustainable condition of the fishery. The findings of the research inform the possible impact of fishing profit to overcapacity in sustainable fishery management in Pahang State fishery.
