Exploración de los Posibles Impactos de las Reglas de la OMC Sobre Subsidios a la Pesca: El Caso del Camarón en la Costa Oeste de América Latina

The document examines shrimp fisheries in the Eastern Tropical Pacific, which are economically valuable but face overcapacity and sequential overfishing. It identifies fuel subsidies as the most common support mechanism, though their impact on profitability varies across fleets. The study concludes that WTO rules prohibiting subsidies for overfished stocks and fuel subsidies would have the most significant impact on the region's shrimp fishing.

• Shrimp fisheries in the Eastern Tropical Pacific are economically valuable but have been impacted by sequential overfishing and overcapacity.
• Fuel subsidies are the most frequent type of subsidy provided to these fisheries, although their importance to fleet profitability is inconsistent.
• The most impactful WTO subsidy rules for the region would be those prohibiting subsidies for fuel and for the fishing of overfished stocks, given that many shrimp species are currently overexploited.
