Potential Economic Consequences of the Landing Obligation [PDF]
To assess the likely economic outcomes to fishing fleets of the Landing Obligation (LO), bioeconomic models covering seven European fisheries, ranging from the North East Atlantic to the Mediterranean, have been applied to estimate the economic performance of fleets before and after implementing the LO.

Synthesis of the landing obligation measures and discard rates
Article 15 of the reformed European Union (EU) Common Fisheries Policy (CFP) came into force on 1 January 2015. It introduced a phased implementation of a discard ban: a prohibition on discarding catch, generally described as the Landing Obligation (LO). The introduction of the LO was essentially a change from a 'landing' to a 'catch quota' system.

Monitoring the Implementation of the Landing Obligation: The Last Haul Programme [PDF]
The collection of catch composition data during inspections at sea by EU Member States occurs under the framework of joint deployment plans (JDP). It is known as “the last haul” (LH) programme and has been a fundamental tool in allowing the estimation of discards and the derivation of indicators of compliance with the landing obligation (LO).

The economics of a landing obligation:short term impacts for the Danish fishery of implementing the EU landing obligation [PDF]

In spite of that, there is a lack of theoretical as well as empirical analyses of the consequences of a landing obligation.

The challenges of the landing obligation in EU fisheries [PDF]
Abstract A feasibility study was conducted on the impacts of the new Common Fisheries Policy (CFP) rules requiring catches in regulated fisheries to be landed and counted against quotas of each Member State - the landing obligation (LO), and that catch of species subject to the LO below a minimum conservation reference size (MCRS) be restricted to ...
