AN OPTIMAL MANAGEMENT MODEL FOR INTENSIVE AQUACULTURE - AN APPLICATION IN ATLANTIC SALMON

In this paper the optimal management strategy for intensive aquaculture is viewed in terms of a combined strategy of releasing the optimal number of recruits and harvesting those recruits at the optimal harvesting time. A model which can be used to determine the optimal management strategy is develo...
