| Abstract: | Trend analysis of fishers by age cohort clarifies that the number of young fishers started to show an in-creasing trend in the late 1990s and early 2000s. The background of the increasing trend is the deteriorating employment environment during a depression. The increase of young fishers is more conspicuous in the coastal fishery than in the offshore and ocean fishery, and employed young fishers increased more than inde-pendent young fishers. This means that an increasing number of companies employed young fishers in the coastal fishery. Although starting as an employed fisher is the first step for youths to get involved in fishing, supports from the regional fisheries cooperative and municipality are vital to settle them in the fishing village and let them develop into independent fishers. |
