生态标签海产食品是促进渔业可持续发展的重要工具。贴生态标签的海产品的价格溢价标志着对可持续捕捞方法的投资有回报，为渔民采用这种方法提供了激励。本文调查了瑞典渔民是否获得了价格溢价参与海洋管理理事会（MSC）认证的瑞典东波罗的海鳕鱼渔业在2011-2012年期间。使用一个详细的数据集的着陆票和日志簿，我们应用面板数据的方法来估计MSC的价格溢价。我们无法找到可靠的证据证明，在这种情况下，消费者对多组分监用鳕鱼的溢价实际上被转嫁给了生产者。
Eco-labelled seafood is an important tool to promote sustainable development in fisheries. A price premium on eco-labelled seafood signals a return on investment in sustainable fishing methods, providing an incentive for fishers to adopt such methods. This paper investigates whether Swedish fishermen gained a price premium from participating in the Marine Stewardship Council (MSC)-certified Swedish Eastern Baltic cod fishery in the period 2011-2012. Using a detailed dataset of landing tickets and log books, we apply a panel data methodology to estimate the MSC price premium. We cannot find reliable evidence that the consumer level premium for MCS cod is actually passed back to the producers in this case.
