“…Additionally, the study identified that there is an insignificant effect of enabling innovation structure on blue growth. This result is also supported by Saviolidis et al (2020) that when the management does not properly develop innovation structure than it cannot help to enhance their blue growth. Lastly, a contrasting result identified that there is an insignificant effect of enabling innovation structure on blue growth Barbesgaard (2018).…”

“…Similarly, for this process, environmental concerns are highlighted since the beginning as they can create sustainability in business for the proposed system or industry (Lagasco et al, 2019). Also, business sustainability has termed a demand for production but with high quality, certifications, and innovative techniques to better the industry and environment (Saviolidis et al, 2020). In this study, the researcher has taken business sustainability for valuing business sustainability.…”

The study aims to determine the drivers and barriers of blue growth success in Pakistan from the CPEC perspective. The study has collected 129 responses from the marine and CPEC officials to gain insightful knowledge and understanding of their opinion based on a seven-point Likert scale questionnaire and purposive-criterion sampling technique. The data analysis was conducted using PLS-SEM for estimating the validity and reliability of the model and hypothesis testing. The results showed that four critical barriers had been identified, including uncertainty avoidance, functional strategic focus, prioritization of the short-term growth (rather than long-term orientation), and weak innovativeness. However, the study has also identified that sustainability for businesses, balanced approach between stakeholders and shareholders, and top management commitment/support are major drivers towards blue growth in Pakistan from the CPEC perspective. After conducting the study, it is recommended to policymakers that long-term orientation, the correctness of the strategic focus, and a balanced approach should be mainly emphasized to optimize investment opportunities in CPEC for sustainable blue growth in Pakistan. Moreover, innovativeness should be focus primarily on improving the overall efficiency of CPEC and blue growth in Pakistan in the larger perspective. CPEC is a crucial aspect for blue growth in Pakistan, and therein, a dire need has been highlighted in the literature to undergo the barriers and drivers for blue growth from the CPEC perspective

“…A study of the conditions for realising blue growth in the Icelandic and Norwegian fishing industry, analysed four factors considered critical for the industry: regulatory-, resource-, market-, and social factors. 23 A key finding from the study is that the industry considers regulations both a key driver and barrier to blue growth. 24 However, the regulations assessed in this study comprise the general fisheries regulations, including stock management and allocation of quotas between fleet groups, not regulations or policies adopted for the realisation of blue growth in the fisheries industry per se.…”

The Norwegian Bioeconomy Strategy and the Way Forward for Blue Growth

2021

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

The Arctic Council Sustainable Development Working Group (SDWG) recently released a report on the blue bioeconomy in the Arctic. In this paper, we discuss the Norwegian policy to promote the Norwegian blue bioeconomy, analysing the government’s bioeconomy strategy and its strategy for marine residuals. We find that the strategies have several and partly incompatible goals, related to improving the economic, environmental, and social sustainability of the seafood sector. We discuss challenges and (missed) opportunities in the Norwegian government’s strategy for turning the Norwegian economy towards blue growth. Our findings are supported by recent studies that conclude that more efficient and coherent policy actions are needed to ensure the sustainability of the marine bioeconomy.

“…In all countries, aquatic biological resources and products obtained from aquaculture facilities are given a special place in the formation of national food security. The development of the domestic fisheries sector is facilitated by the raw material base of fishing, which is estimated at 5.2 million tons in total for 2019 [1][2][3][4][5].…”

Current state of the fishing industry in the Krasnodar region and its contribution to the country's food security

et al. 2020

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

The paper contains information about the current state of the fishing industry of the Krasnodar territory, the resource base of which is industrial fishing and aquaculture, which is represented by various categories of farms (pond, cage, basin, mariculture). Detailed data on the production of aquaculture products for various categories of farms in the Krasnodar territory are provided. The most developed areas are pasture and pond fish farming, accounting for more than 90% of the region's commercial aquaculture products. The main cultivated objects are various breeds of carp (carp) (Cyprinus carpio), white carp (Hypophthalmichthys molitrix), mottled carp (Hypophthalmichthys nobilis) and white Cupid (Ctenopharyngodon idella). The characteristic of the mariculture of the region is given. The results of industrial fishing in the Azov-Black sea basin are considered. The contribution of the fishing industry of the Krasnodar territory to the country's food security is determined.
