Need

Full sponsorship details are on-line at: https://apmbc2023.com/#sponsorship . FRDC will be given the opportunity to select a specified package or negotiate something more suitable to them. The Conference organisers would greatly appreciate a sponsorship amount in the order of $15,000, equivalent to bronze sponsor. FRDC rather than a "Bronze Sponsorship" package might alternatively prefer, for example, to fund a number of "Speaker Session Support Packages" (e.g. "Aquaculture and Fisheries") or a "Forum" (e.g. "Early Career Researchers" or "Woman Leadership").

The entitlements to FRDC will vary with the sponsorship package they choose, so I have not outlined each here but refer the reader to the link provided above to the web site where they are provided in detail. It is recommended that FRDC ring Rebecca Gabriel, the professional Conference event organiser (All Occasions Group - All Occasions Management) addressing sponsorships (08 8125 2200 (Option 1) press 2 for Sponsorship) or contact the Conference Sponsor Coordinator, Steven Clarke (Mobile: 0499 837 337).

Need

Statistics on Australian fisheries production and trade seeks to meet the needs of the fishing and aquaculture industry, fisheries managers, policymakers and researchers. It can assist in policy decisions, industry marketing strategies and the allocation of research funding or priorities. The gross value of production for specific fisheries are used for determining the research and development levies collected by government.

The neutrality and integrity of GVP estimates is therefore important due to their forming the basis for research levies for each fishery. At the international level, the Department of Agriculture through the Australian Bureau of Agricultural and Resource Economics and Sciences (ABARES) contributes to a number of international databases. These include databases managed by the Food and Agriculture Organisation (FAO) and the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD). Information at the international level can assist in international negotiations on issues such as trans-boundary fisheries and analysis of trade opportunities.

Objectives

1. To maintain and improve the data base of production, gross value of production and trade statistics for the Australian fishing industry, including aquaculture.
2. To provide these data in an accessible form.
