管理被遗弃,丢失和以其他方式丢弃的渔具(ALDFG)是一项关键挑战,可以通过建立强有力的渔具标记条款来帮助。本研究分析了VGMFG在东加勒比海州的实施情况。它对这一问题进行了社会法律审查,并分析了遵守和执行方面的差距。通过采访2个司法管辖区的56名渔民以及6名国家和区域渔业管理专家,收集了经验数据。安提瓜和巴布达的《渔业条例》为VGMFG的实施提供了最强有力的支持,而多米尼加和格林纳达都没有对装备标记的监管支持。该区域的渔民和渔业管理人员都确认了在建立渔具标识计划方面的遵守和执行差距,虽然区域渔业专家强调了有限的人类,各部门的财政和基础设施能力,以有效实施这些计划以及其他ALDFG管理措施。
Managing abandoned, lost and otherwise discarded fishing gear (ALDFG) is a critical challenge that can be aided by the establishment of strong provisions for the marking of gear. This study presents an analysis of implementation of the VGMFG in Eastern Caribbean states. It provides a socio-legal review of this issues and an analysis of compliance and implementation gaps. Empirical data was gathered through interviews with 56 fishers in 2 jurisdictions as well as 6 national and regional fisheries management experts. Antigua and Barbuda\'s Fisheries Regulations provided the strongest support to implementation of the VGMFG, while neither Dominica nor Grenada had weak regulatory support for gear marking. Both fishers and fisheries managers in the region confirmed compliance and implementation gaps in the establishment of gear marking schemes, while regional fisheries experts highlighted the limited human, financial and infrastructural capacity of departments to effectively implement such schemes along with other ALDFG management measures.
