The socio-economic impacts of the silver-cheeked toadfish on small-scale fishers: A comparative study from the Turkish coast
Abstract
The silver-cheeked toadfish, Lagocephalus
sceleratus (Gmelin,
1789), which is enlisted as one of the problematic 100 invasive
species in the Mediterranean, entered the Turkish waters in 2003 and since then
it has negatively affected the ecosystem and became a major concern for the
small-scale fishers. The aim of the present study is to assess the
socio-economic impacts of silver-cheeked
toadfish on small-scale fishers operating along the Turkish-Mediterranean and
the Aegean coast. The research is based on a dataset collected between January
1st, 2013 and January 1st, 2014 using face-to-face
interviews with 215 fishers from 7 coastal cities from İzmir-Çesme in the
Middle Aegean region to Hatay-Samandağ in the Syrian border.The data obtained
in the present study were compared to the data of the only existing previous
study carried out by the same researchers in the same coastal cities
between 2011-2012 in order to understand
the proportion and the direction of the change after two years. The results of
this study support other literature, which indicates that silver-cheeked
toadfish damage small-scale fisheries. Almost all of the fishers (97%) stated
that this species damages their fishing gears and the fish entangled to these
fishing gears. The loss caused by silver-cheeked toadfish in 2013-2014
increased by more than double compared to the 2011-2012 period, and in this
regard, we hope that such results increase awareness amongst decision-makers.
Consequently, there is a definite need for policies and measures (e.g. bounty
system, permission of fishing in certain time of the year) to reduce or
eliminate the negative effects of the silver-cheeked toadfish on fishers. Imminent
decisions to support fishers should be taken based on best available scientific
data. We think that further studies should be implemented to monitor the
association and interaction between silver-toad fish, other species, the
ecosystem, and the socio-economic impact of the pufferfish.

Benekli balon balığının küçük ölçekli balıkçılar üzerindeki sosyo-ekonomik etkisi: Türk kıyılarından karşılaştırmalı bir çalışma
Abstract
Akdeniz’in sorunlu 100 işgalci türü arasında gösterilen Benekli
balon balığı (Lagocephalus sceleratus)
(Gmelin, 1789), Türkiye denizlerinde ilk defa 2013 yılında görülmüş ve o
tarihten bugüne kadar ekosistemi olumsuz yönde etkileyerek tüm küçük ölçekli
balıkçılar için büyük bir sorun haline gelmiştir. Bu çalışmanın amacı, Akdeniz
ve Ege’nin Türkiye kıyılarındaki küçük ölçekli balıkçılar tarafından karşılaşılan
benekli balon balığının sosyo-ekonomik etkilerini belirlemektir. Araştırma, 1
Ocak 2013 – 1 Ocak 2014 tarihleri arasında, Orta Ege’de İzmir-Çeşme’den Suriye
sınırında Hatay-Samandağ arasında kalan 7 adet kıyı kentinde 215 balıkçı ile
yapılan yüz yüze görüşmelerden toplanan verilere dayanmaktadır. Çalışmada elde
edilen veriler, daha önce de aynı araştırmacılar tarafından 2011-2012 yılları
arasında aynı bölgelerde gerçekeştirilmiş olan tek çalışma ile
karşılaştırılarak iki yıl içinde meydana gelen değişiklikler ve oranları
anlaşılmaya çalışılmıştır. Çalışmanın sonuçları, benekli balon balığının küçük
ölçekli balıkçılığa zarar verdiğini ortaya koyan diğer araştırmalarla
örtüşmektedir. Görüşülen balıkçıların tamamına yakını (%97) bu türün av araçlarına
ve ağlara takılan balıklara zarar verdiğini belirtmiştir. 2013-2014 arasında
benekli balon balığının sebep olduğu kayıpların, 2011-2012 dönemindekine oranla
iki kattan daha fazla oranda artmış olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Çalışmada ortaya
konan sonuçlar sayesinde karar vericiler arasında farkındalığın artması umulmaktadır.
Buna bağlı olarak, benekli balon balığının olumsuz etkilerinin azaltılması ya
da ortadan kaldırılması yönünde politikaların geliştirilmesi ve önlemlerin
alınması yönünde bir ihtiyaç olduğu açıkça belirlenmiştir. Eldeki en doğru
bilimsel veriler ışığında, balıkçıları destekleyecek acil kararların alınması (örn.
prim sistemi, yılın belirli zamanlarında avlanmasına izin verilmesi) gerekmektedir. Benekli
balon balığı, diğer türler, ekosistem ve bu türün sosyo-ekonomik etkileri
arasındaki ilişki ve etkileşimin izlenmesi konusunda daha fazla çalışma
yapılmasının gerekli olduğu düşünülmektedir.
