| Abstract | Australian Commonwealth fisheries have adopted maximum economic yield as a target reference point. A bioeconomic model has been developed for one key fishery - the Northern Prawn Fishery - and is used in the provision of management advice. The development and application of this model has highlighted some challenges for implementing MEY in a real fisheries management context. The aim of this paper is to highlight the development of this model, and the issues and challenges that are faced with estimating MEY for the purposes of management target setting in a real management setting. |
