2012 Economic Survey of Gulf State Shrimp License Holders

Description

This mail survey collected economic data on inshore commercial shrimp fishermen who held licenses to commercially harvest shrimp in state waters of the U.S. Gulf of Mexico throughout 2012. It is designed to complement a similar economic data collection of commercial shrimp harvesters in offshore waters of the Gulf (those holding a federal shrimp permit). Data regarding vessel values, indebtedness, commercial shrimp harvesting activities, revenues, and expenses were collected in order to produce simple standardized financial statements, including a balance sheet, cash flow statement, and income statement for the average or typical vessel.
