Abstract
The Ricker method for predicting the yield per recruitment from a stock of fish under various conditions is superior to that of Beverton and Holt (1957) under most conditions because it permits greater flexibility of the input of growth and mortality data. Such useful devices as the isopleth diagram and the eumetric fishing curve, usually associated with the Beverton and Holt method, can be used also with the Ricker method. A computer program for the Ricker method is described, and its use is demonstrated with an example.
