Researches on constructing evaluation index system of recreational fishery competitiveness of China
(Objectives)Recreational fisheries development is an important part of advancing the modern fishery construction,as well as an important measure to implement the strategy of rural revitalization and build a powerful marine economy.The evaluation of recreational fishery competitiveness is an im-portant basis for guiding its development.(Methods)In this research,we draw on the relevant theories of economic competitiveness to analyze the concept of recreational fishery competitiveness using a com-bination of qualitative and quantitative analysis methods,and the process of building-optimizing-testing index system to construct an evaluation index system for the recreational fishery competitiveness of China.(Results)(1)The competitiveness of recreational fishery is a comprehensive reflection of the development strength and development potential of a regional recreational fishery,including the four core elements of economic growth,resource endowment,service industry development level,and con-sumer market;(2)Competing for fishery resources 11 indicators in four aspects,competitiveness,in-dustrial competitiveness,service competitiveness,and leisure demand competitiveness,to construct a recreational fishery competitiveness evaluation index system;(3)According to correlation analysis,e-liminate linearly related repeating indicators,and coefficient of variation analysis eliminates weak dis-criminative power.Qualitative analysis retains the characteristic indicators of the recreational fishery industry.This qualitative and quantitative method has good applicability in the evaluation of recreation-al fishery competitiveness.(Conclusion)In this study,we believe that the construction-optimization-testing process of recreational fishery competitiveness index system is reasonable.The optimized index system eliminates the repetitive index and the weakly identifiable index,the competitiveness evaluation result is more objective,and the index reflecting the characteristics of the recreational fishery industry is retained based on the qualitative evaluation.
