Abstract:

This paper discusses economic field data collection and analysis methodologies developed for a production and marketing study of a small-scale fishery in Matalom, Leyte, Philippines. The field data collection methodology is built around the use of a recprd keeping system. The economic analysis method makes use of budgeting techniques for the production study; and descriptive, organizational, and price efficiency techniques for the marketing study. These methods are then compared to economic data collection and analysis methods used by researchers in three other projects on small-scale fisheries in the Philippines, Costa Rica and India.
