Since 2001, Ifremer has implemented an economic data collection programme (EDCP) within the Data Collection Framework of the EU. It aims to obtain economic data from a sample of vessels representative of the entire French fishing fleet.

We show that the EDCP allows precise economic indicators such as gross revenue or fuel costs to be estimated for the whole fishing fleet, including small vessels ( ; data collection,panel data,sampling,small vessels,statistical precision,statistical precision 1,fishery-dependent information,economic indicators |
