Transcription

1 Economic Impacts of Private Sector Aquaculture-Based Recreational Fishing in the Western USA 2009 Annual Report Dr. Craig A. Bond, Assistant Professor Daniel Deisenroth, Ph.D. Candidate Colorado State University Presented to the WRAC IAC/TC October 7, 2009, Spokane, WA

2 Project Objectives Document the economic contribution of the ASRF industry and related activity Develop a sampling frame for documenting industry trends over time Generate additional primary research on the industry environment Develop a variety of outreach materials and final report

3 Anticipated Benefits Document the economic contributions of the Aquacultural Suppliers of Recreational Fish (ASRF) in the Western United States Direct, indirect, and induced spending and employment effects Support of recreational fishing

4 Broad Project Progress Overview ASRF industry surveying and basic IMPLAN analysis complete 2,300 angler surveys distributed across CO (1,700) and CA (600) and in process of being returned Private fishery survey at focus group stage 12:30PM, ) Time to step up the outreach effort!

5 ASRF Customer Data Objective 1: Data Collection Survey being developed, focus group tomorrow Distribution October- December Content similar to ASRF industry survey: sales, expenditures/costs, general business info

6 ASRF Customer Data Objective 2: Sampling Frame Using ASRF cooperators, over 1,000 CO customers have been identified Includes municipalities, private ranches and clubs, HOAs, other private property If you sell recreational fish and are willing to share your customer list (or know of contacts that might), please let me know!

7 Recreational Angler Data Objective 1: Data Collection Leveraged $ with USFWS project (Dr. Loomis, PI) to expand sampling frame Survey instrument designed and focus grouped (with general public and team members)

8 Recreational Angler Data Objective 1: Data Collection Categories of data include: Attributes of most recent fishing trip (catch rate, location quality, travel time and cost) Expenditure information Patterns of fishing behavior over season Contingent behavior (what if catch rates decline)? Demographics

9 Recreational Angler Data Objective 2: Sampling Frame 21 private fisheries in CO, 0 in CA 18 public sites in CO, 17 in CA Split according to budget/labor availability About half of public sites in CA are privately stocked Regions determined taking into consideration types of fisheries, decent substitution possibilities, and geographic location (see maps Appendix 3 & 4)

10 Recreational Angler Data Objective 2: Sampling Frame 2,300 surveys distributed by students and private establishments (according to their preferences) Response rate averaging near 70%

11 Objective 3: Additional Industry Research Incorporation of secondary Alaska data into Western region as appendix in final report Graduate student identified to write theoretical paper on regulation when regulator is also a production competitor Angler spending and angler behavior including private and public sites

12 ASRF Population: Results The following results summarize our findings regarding the economic contributions of the ASRF industry only (backward linkages) in mostly table form Sample extension-type document in Appendix 7 of our annual report in mostly graphical form Inputs $ $ Basic Products Industry Labor $ $ Inputs Goods & Services Households $ Services $ $ Suggestions greatly appreciated (craig.bond@colostate.edu)!

29 Aggregate ASRF Economic Contributions, Western Region Direct Indirect Induced Total Output $57.2 mil $24.6 mil $26.3 mil $ mil Employment 1, ,680

30 Still to Come Finish angler survey and begin analyzing data Expenditure differences between fishing on public and private lands Substitution between public and private fisheries/ public and privately stocked fisheries What if ASRF didn t exist? Finish private fisheries survey and begin analyzing data (contributions) Complete economic report that incorporates all three populations Work progressing generally according to schedule (full presentations ready Spring, 10)

31 Outreach to Date Presentation of ASRF results at the Western Agricultural Economics Association meeting, June, 2009 Presentation at Colorado Aquaculture Association meetings, Jan, 2009 Various Fishline articles updating progress on study

32 Preparing Outreach Materials To be prepared: Draft economic contribution report in Appendix 7 (results shown today) in extension-type form Glossy handouts for distribution Powerpoint slides and other material on website Press Releases if desired NOTE: We would be happy to write to order! Please let us know your needs!

33 Getting the Word Out As the data collection effort winds down, we would like to hit the road to present our results If you are hosting, or know of, a conference, meeting, or event that may be interested in any of our forthcoming results, please contact us (craig.bond@colostate.edu, daniel.deisentroth@colostate.edu)
