HERNANDEZ-TREJO, Víctor; RAMIREZ-RODRIGUEZ, Mauricio; PONCE-DIAZ, Germán y ALMENDAREZ-HERNANDEZ, Luis. Economic rent of Jumbo Squid Dosidicus gigas Fisheries Typical Production Units in the Gulf of California. Hidrobiológica [online]. 2014, vol.24, n.1, pp.78-81. ISSN 0188-8897.
The jumbo squid fishery in Mexico is mainly performed off the Baja California Sur (BCS) and Sonora (SON) coasts in the Gulf of California by cooperatives and private firms which operate outboard boats (pangas) or shrimp trawlers. The differences in economic returns of each type of fleet were estimated through the characterization of typical production units (TPU). The TPU of BCS, with 10 pangas, obtains Mexican pesos $2722,000.00 annually from squid sales and pays 68% of it in salaries. The TPU in SON, with 5 shrimp trawlers, earns Mexican pesos $4027,000.00 annually (54% from shrimp sales, 18% from squid and, additionally receives 22% from the government for diesel subsidies); diesel costs represent 52% of the total income.
