“…This result supports recent findings where recognition and understanding of eco-labels for food products was positively correlated with label use [70]. Our results also corroborate findings from earlier work stressing that concern for environmental impacts from seafood production is positively correlated with stated purchasing of eco-labeled seafood [6,10,12]. Level of concern was weakly, yet significantly, positively correlated with recognition of seafood eco-labels (linear regression, R 2 = 0.06, p < 0.01).…”

“…The majority of studies have focused on capture fisheries and only a few on farmed seafood [6]. Earlier work has either: (a) applied an experimental approach using contingent valuation to estimate consumers' willingness to pay for eco-labeled seafood [7][8][9][10]; (b) examined consumers' attitudes towards eco-labeling of seafood [11][12][13]; (c) more generally explored the perceived importance of sustainability and ethics related to seafood [14,15]; or (d) used market data to investigate whether there is a price premium for eco-certified seafood [16,17].…”

“…This paper, additionally, assesses the potential feasibility of investment in a wastewater-based aquaculture business in view of consumers' WTP estimates. There are numerous studies that have estimated consumers' WTP for fish product attributes, but the majority of them have been undertaken in developed countries and have focused on seafood labeling and production practices with few studies in Asia [16][17][18][19][20] where food safety is a big challenge. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first empirical application of a choice experiment that estimates households' WTP for informational attributes (certification and sources of water used to raise fish) of a fish product in Hanoi, Vietnam.…”

“…These third-party certification organizations and their standards can partly be seen as a response to the challenge of finding a common knowledge base and consensus on the effects of aquaculture production activities, and the inability of governments to develop policies and regulations that satisfy important stakeholders. For aquaculture producers, such standards facilitate access to demanding buyers, but they may also provide a higher price (Roheim, Sudhakaran, & Durham, 2012;Uchida, Onozaka, Morita, & Managi, 2014;Asche, Larsen, Smith, & Young, 2015).…”
