Initial analysis : economic viability of ships fishing around FADs off the South-West coast of Efate Twenty-second regional technical meeting on fisheries /Cillaurren, Espérance POISSON MARIN ESPECE PELAGIQUE TECHNIQUE DE PECHE DISPOSITIF DE CONCENTRATION DES POISSONS NAVIRE DE PECHE RENTABILITE COUT INVESTISSEMENT ANALYSE STATISTIQUE An assessment has been carried out on the profitability of fishing for pelagic species around the fish aggregating devices (F.A.D.) moored in Vanuatu, and more specifically on Efate. A balance of accounts covers the cost and income on a fishing trip basis. Ideally, an average of 100 trips per annum should be achieved to offset the investment. On Efate, fuel consumption costs during the fishing trip account for 56% of the overall costs of the trip. The fluctuation in income follows the fluctuating levels of production depending on the amount of time spent trolling around the rafts.
