Fatunia, G.T. and Oladimu, O.L. and Ladipo, O.O. (1982) A quantitative analysis of demand for fish in Nigeria. In: 2nd Annual Conference of the Fisheries Society of Nigeria (FISON) , 25-27 January, 1982 , Calabar, Nigeria.
Abstract
The paper discusses the relevant theoretical considerations and specifies a model in an attempt to quantify those variables, the changes of which affect the internal demand for fish in Nigeria. Regression analyses carried out show that a generally rising trend in per capita income will increase the demand for fish, other things being equal. It is further revealed that even as the price of fish goes on increasing, consumers' demand for fish also tend to rise. The paper concludes by emphasizing the need for a fish consumption survey in the country's fish demand
