Linking ecosystem services to the profitability of prawn fisheries linked to 2017-188

This project links the profitability of prawn fisheries to natural assets via the ecosystem services they provide, building on the methods and data developed in FRDC project 2013/006. (Refer project led by FWPA - Increasing farm gate profits: the role of natural capital accounts). By describing the causal links between the physical environment and fishing activities and quantifying the condition of the biophysical environment and impacts of different land uses, management practices can be optimised.
