  • Abstract
    In Fishery Economics solutions to the problem of commonality have been in the form of pricing policies, direct controls or limited entry. In this paper the notion of letting the market correct for the externality is considered, theoretically and then empirically. By allowing the market to be dominated by a monopsonist the concept of a maximum economic yield may be realized and the deallocation of resources corrected.
