Decomposing the Drivers of Profitability in Two Key Commonwealth Prawn Fisheries
This paper uses an index number profit decomposition approach to examine recent drivers of change in profitability in two key Commonwealth prawn fisheries, the Northern Prawn Fishery and the Torres Strait Prawn Fishery. The results reveal that a divergence...

Use of Antimicrobials to Extend Shelf Life in Fresh Catfish Fillets
Extending the shelf life of fresh catfish fillets would make it possible for catfish producers to increase the length of time in the supply chain and make it more feasible for processors to produce fresh, never-frozen, tray-packed products that can be...
