This management plan proposes a set of options to be offered to the Northern Prawn Fishery Class B and Class C unit holders, with Western Australian Fishing Boat Licences, who are displaced by the compulsory reduction of the Northern Prawn Fishery fleet and to owners of trawlers with access to …
A Study Into The Feasibility Of Establishing A System For The Buy-Back Of Salmon Fishing Authorisations And Related Endorsements., P. J. Monaghan
A Study Into The Feasibility Of Establishing A System For The Buy-Back Of Salmon Fishing Authorisations And Related Endorsements., P. J. Monaghan
Fisheries management papers
A buy-back system for the buy-back of under performing salmon authorisations is suggested as the most cost effective method of reducing the number of salmon fishing units. It could be of benefit to commercial salmon fishermen and could be achieved at relatively modest cost. The alternative of implementing a buy-back system of interest to all salmon authorisation holders could be extraordinary expensive as salmon fishermen place a high value on lifestyle.

A Discussion Of Options For Effort Reduction., Southern Demersal Gillnet And Demersal Longline Fishery Management Advisory Committe
A Discussion Of Options For Effort Reduction., Southern Demersal Gillnet And Demersal Longline Fishery Management Advisory Committe
Fisheries management papers
The committee prefers to reduce effort in the fishery by improving the effectiveness of the 50 per cent reduction on transfer rule. To do this it is necessary to prevent the use of lease arrangements which act as a form of transfer.Some consideration could also be given to encouraging transfer of licences by protecting purchased units against further effort reductions. The Minister for Fisheries has determined that ownership statement must be completed prior to licence renewal each year. It is hoped that this will prevent licence holders from using lease arrangements to effect transfers and so avoid the loss of …
Establishment Of A Registry To Record Charges Against Fishing Licences When Used As Security For Loans., P. Rogers
Fisheries management papers
This report outlines the Committee's final advice to the Minister for Fisheries on the need for a public commercial fishing licence register which has a mechanism for the recording of financial security interest in fishing licences. The Committee was greatly assisted by legislation introduced within the Victorian State Parliament during 1989, which by amendment to the Fisheries Act, provides for the registration of prescribed financial interests in fishing licences (See Appendix 1).

The Future For Recreational Fishing Forum Proceedings Saturday, 20 October 1990., Recreational Fishing Advisory Committee
Fisheries management papers
Australia's first recreational fishing forum was held at the West Australian Cricket Association Ground, in Perth WA on Saturday, 20 October 1990. It was clearly recognised by government, fishers and fisheries managers alike that the 1990's was the decade of decision for recreational fishing in WA. At the end of the day, the 12 speakers had covered an impressive range of topics, from the principles of resource sharing to community education and the question of funding the management of recreational fishing.

The Economic Impact Of Recreational Fishing In Western Australia., R. K. Linchner
The Economic Impact Of Recreational Fishing In Western Australia., R. K. Linchner
Fisheries management papers
The Minister for Fisheries commissioned Economic Research Associates to carry out a study of the economic impact of recreational fishing in Western Australia. Two surveys were conducted to determine how much recreational fishers spend during the year on goods and services in order to go fishing. One involved telephone interviews of 401 recreational fishers, who were selected from a stratified random sample of households in five major regions of the state. The other survey employed a self enumeration questionnaire sent to randomly selected licensed recreational fishers, as well as being made available on non-random self-selection basis through fishing clubs and …

Diseases Of Mahi Mahi Or Common Dolphin Fish, Coryphaena Hippurus In Australia, Jeremy S. Langdon
Diseases Of Mahi Mahi Or Common Dolphin Fish, Coryphaena Hippurus In Australia, Jeremy S. Langdon
Fisheries research bulletins
The diseases encountered in mahi mahi, Coryphaena hippurus, in a land-based hatchery, grow-out sea-cages, and from wild populations between 1987 and 1990 were predominately due to protozoan and metazoan parasites. "Milky flesh", or flesh liquefaction post-mortem, due to Kudoa thyrsites, Trichodina gill infections, and eye lesions induced by Benedenia were the most serious infectious diseases of cultured fish. Bacterial diseases were limited to secondary opportunistic infections and fin "rot", and no fungal or viral conditions were detected. Non-infectious diseases included vitamin E deficiency in fry, lateral canal erosions, and miscellaneous dietary and therapeutic toxicities.

A detailed efficiency survey of about 30 per cent of the irrigated horticultural area in the Peel-Harvey catchment revealed that only two out of 20 growers operated at the recommended efficiency levels. In addition it was found that the expenses associated with inefficiency were such that 12 out of 18 farmers would be able to recover improvement costs within one year of operation.
Land Capability Study For Horticulture In The Swan Valley, J M. Campbell-Clause, Geoff Allan Moore
Land Capability Study For Horticulture In The Swan Valley, J M. Campbell-Clause, Geoff Allan Moore
Land resources series
The Swan Valley is an important agricultural, recreational, tourist and heritage area in which there are a number of competing land uses because of its location close to Perth. The traditional agricultural use, mainly centred around the viticulture industry, has to compete with tourist development, urban encroachment, hobby farms and clay extraction. The major objective of this report was to identify any areas of prime horticultural land which should be retained for that purpose. A land capability study was done using the existing soil series map of the Swan Valley (Pym 1955), which covers most of the Swan Valley Policy …

Pasture Condition Guides For The Murchison River Catchment, A Fox, T R. Eckersley
Pasture Condition Guides For The Murchison River Catchment, A Fox, T R. Eckersley
Soil conservation survey collection
Knowledge of the pasture resource and its capabilities is essential to sustainable use of the rangelands. Rangeland managers must be able to recognise firstly the different pasture types, and secondly, the differences between present condition classes for each type. Both factors affect the stock carrying capacity, and appropriate pastoral management of a pasture. This guide has been produced for use by pastoralists to assist them to recognise and assess the condition of the perennial pasture resource of their own properties. The guide describes the condition states found in 10 of the most widespread pastures of the Murchison River catchment (Fig. …
