摘要

土地使用变化、栖息地退化和气候变化等人为压力因素给全球内陆鱼类种群带来了压力。这些生态干扰会影响整个社会生态系统的参与者,造成上岸量、上岸价格和沿海收入的不确定性。迄今为止,有关渔业部门复原力的大多数文献都侧重于捕捞(生产)、渔业管理和渔民的生计,而很少关注捕捞后部门以及鱼类加工商、物流供应商、批发商和零售商的生计。以马拉维的小规模乌贼鱼(Engraulicypris sardella)贸易为例,我们调查了价格波动(一种不确定性)对小规模鱼类零售商生计的影响。通过集中研究价值链下游地区的鱼类零售商,我们对更广泛的鱼类食品系统中的小型渔业参与者如何经历和适应不确定性提供了新的见解。我们发现,价格波动会对零售商的净收入产生负面影响,而空间套利是一种重要的适应策略。然而,性别动态和资金获取限制了零售商采用空间套利适应策略的能力。

Price volatility in fish food systems: spatial arbitrage as an adaptive strategy for small-scale fish traders

Anthropogenic stressors such as land-use change, habitat degradation, and climate change stress inland fish populations globally. Such ecological disturbances can affect actors throughout the social-ecological system by contributing to uncertainty in landings, landing prices, and coastal incomes. Most literature to date on the resilience of the fishing sector has focused on fishing (production), fisheries management, and the livelihoods of fishers, whereas little attention has been paid to the post-harvest sector and the livelihoods of fish processors, logistics providers, wholesalers, and retailers. In the empirical case of the small-scale usipa (Engraulicypris sardella) trade in Malawi, we investigated the impacts of price volatility, a form of uncertainty, on small-scale fish retailers’ livelihood outcomes. By concentrating on fish retailers in the downstream region of the value chain, we provide new insight into how small-scale fisheries actors in the broader fish food system experience and adapt to uncertainty. We find that price volatility negatively impacts net income for retailers, and that an important adaptive strategy is spatial arbitrage. However, gender dynamics and access to capital limit retailers’ ability to employ the spatial arbitrage adaptive strategy.

The post Price volatility in fish food systems: spatial arbitrage as an adaptive strategy for small-scale fish traders first appeared on Ecology & Society.

期刊介绍: Ecology and Society is an electronic, peer-reviewed, multi-disciplinary journal devoted to the rapid dissemination of current research. Manuscript submission, peer review, and publication are all handled on the Internet. Software developed for the journal automates all clerical steps during peer review, facilitates a double-blind peer review process, and allows authors and editors to follow the progress of peer review on the Internet. As articles are accepted, they are published in an "Issue in Progress." At four month intervals the Issue-in-Progress is declared a New Issue, and subscribers receive the Table of Contents of the issue via email. Our turn-around time (submission to publication) averages around 350 days. We encourage publication of special features. Special features are comprised of a set of manuscripts that address a single theme, and include an introductory and summary manuscript. The individual contributions are published in regular issues, and the special feature manuscripts are linked through a table of contents and announced on the journal''s main page. The journal seeks papers that are novel, integrative and written in a way that is accessible to a wide audience that includes an array of disciplines from the natural sciences, social sciences, and the humanities concerned with the relationship between society and the life-supporting ecosystems on which human wellbeing ultimately depends.
