    Fair Enough? Food Security and the International Trade of Seafood
    (World Development, 2015-03-01) Asche, F; Bellemare, MF; Roheim, C; Smith, MD; Tveteras, S
    © 2014 Elsevier Ltd.Does international trade make all parties better off? We study the relationship between food security and the international trade of fish and seafood between developing and developed countries. Specifically, we look at and discuss the evolution of trade flows - values, quantities, and prices - between developing and developed countries. The picture that emerges suggests that the quantity of seafood exported from developing countries to developed countries is close to the quantity of seafood imported by developing countries from developed countries. What takes place is a quality exchange: developing countries export high-quality seafood in exchange for lower quality seafood.

    Markets, Trade and Seafood
    (Encyclopedia of Natural Resources - Two-Volume Set (Print), 2014-07-23) Smith, MD; Asche, F; Roheim, C
    This entry describes the growth in seafood production and trade and the main factors causing these developments. We then review the leading economic research on the international seafood trade and markets with a focus on interactions of markets and the management of fisheries and aquaculture. Specific examples include the relationship between fisheries management institutions and international trade; the relationship between the value of seafood attributes and production practices; and the development of the Fish Price Index (FPI) by the UN Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) to address food security concerns.
