Item Acesso aberto (Open Access) Caracterização do pescador e da frota pesqueira comercial de Manoel Urbano e Sena Madureira (AC) e Boca do Acre (AM)(2012-06) ALMEIDA, Oriana Trindade de; AMARAL, Lucilene Oliveira da Silva; RIVERO, Sérgio Luiz de Medeiros; SILVA, Christian Nunes daSeveral studies about the fi shing sector have been carried on in the Amazon, however, the majority of these studies are concentrated on regions near the Amazon river bank and its delta. This work has the objective to characterize the Purus commercial fishing fleet and the fisher in three counties: Manoel Urbano and Sena Madureira in the Brazilian state of Acre (AC) and Boca do Acre, in Amazonas (AM).We estimate the fisheries production and income. The results show that in Manoel Urbano (AC) lake fisheries predominate while in Sena Madureira (AC), the diversity in fishing places are lager with fishers using lakes, river and creeks. In Boca do Acre (AM), the largest among the three cities, the most important fishing plots are Pauini and Labrea areas. In relation to boats, Manoel Urbano fishers use only canoes with most of it motorized. In Boca do Acre, fi sheries are practiced mainly in boat. In relation to fishing trip costs the results showed that variable costs are the main costs for canoes (63% of total income) and boats (73% of total income). The analyses showed also that motorized canoes have larger productive capacity per unit of effort (CPUE) in relation to boats.Item Acesso aberto (Open Access) A mão-de-obra da indústria pesqueira na Amazônia(2006) AMARAL, Lucilene Oliveira da Silva; ALMEIDA, Oriana Trindade de; RIVERO, Sérgio Luiz de MedeirosFishery is a very important sector in the Amazon area. Commercial and subsistence fishing activities account for the main job opportunities in the sector, and fishing industries are the greatest income generators for the local population. The fishing industry in Amazon, however, struggles with several difficulties regarding raw-material and training. The seasonality of the species affects the production systems of the companies, which, in their turn, must shift their staff according to the commercial species. Because of this dynamics, some fishing companies use a rotation system, hiring during the harvest season and firing during the period between harvests; other companies use a working load system, keeping a steady staff and making up for the extra working hours during harvest by granting non working hours during the period between harvests. In general, due to this seasonality, fishing companies staff are low qualified and have lower hygiene standards. Uncertainty in keeping jobs, on the other hand, does not motivate employees to training. Some companies policy include keeping a steady staff. Such companies waste less raw material and their employees are better trained and are adapted to higher hygiene standards. In order to maintain a steady staff, these companies must develop a broader fishing strategy during the period between harvests.
