The Korean government implemented a marine ranching program beginning in 1999 to protect marine resources that had been depleted by excessive fishing and environmental degradation of the coastal fishing grounds. The implementation of the marine ranching program in Korea has been a turning point in shifting from exploitative to sustainable fishery management. Of course, prior to the marine ranching program, the Korean government first introduced the installation of artificial reefs and fry release to promote fish stocks. However, as these projects were implemented independently, the convergence effect of the projects was not visible. In addition, the government, which had no choice but to rely solely on strengthening fishing regulations in its efforts to prevent a rapid decline in marine resources, sought to make a breakthrough in the enhancement sustainable use of marine resources through the marine ranching program. Accordingly, in 1999, the Korean government selected five marine ranching pilot programs in consideration of the characteristics of the eastern, western, southern, and Jeju coastal area, and invested approximately 150 billion won in capital in the pilot programs. Each program has been in progress for about 8 to 11 years, and all five pilot programs were completed in 2013, starting with Tongyeong marine ranching in 2006. The marine ranching programs were successfully implemented, leading to increases in marine resources, which led to increases in income from both fishing and non-fishing (e.g., recreational use) activities. However, in spite of this successful implementation, the marine ranching program has experienced some setbacks, such as illegal fishing and monitoring limitations. In conclusion, this study shows that the pilot programs need to overcome lack of management of fishing limit suitable for the level of resources, formal activities of marine ranching management of organizations and members, illegal fishing for fishers outside the organization, insufficient reporting of fishing performance and lack of statistics data, and insufficient connection to tourism business.
Abstract
The Korean government implemented a marine ranching program beginning in 1999 to protect marine resources that had been depleted by excessive fishing and environmental degradation of the coastal fishing grounds. The implementation of the marine ranching program in Korea has been a turning point in shifting from exploitative to sustainable fishery management. Of course, prior to the marine ranching program, the Korean government first introduced the installation of artificial reefs and fry release to promote fish stocks. However, as these projects were implemented independently, the convergence effect of the projects was not visible. In addition, the government, which had no choice but to rely solely on strengthening fishing regulations in its efforts to prevent a rapid decline in marine resources, sought to make a breakthrough in the enhancement sustainable use of marine resources through the marine ranching program. Accordingly, in 1999, the Korean government selected five marine ranching pilot programs in consideration of the characteristics of the eastern, western, southern, and Jeju coastal area, and invested approximately 150 billion won in capital in the pilot programs. Each program has been in progress for about 8 to 11 years, and all five pilot programs were completed in 2013, starting with Tongyeong marine ranching in 2006. The marine ranching programs were successfully implemented, leading to increases in marine resources, which led to increases in income from both fishing and non-fishing (e.g., recreational use) activities. However, in spite of this successful implementation, the marine ranching program has experienced some setbacks, such as illegal fishing and monitoring limitations. In conclusion, this study shows that the pilot programs need to overcome lack of management of fishing limit suitable for the level of resources, formal activities of marine ranching management of organizations and members, illegal fishing for fishers outside the organization, insufficient reporting of fishing performance and lack of statistics data, and insufficient connection to tourism business.
