本文目的是了解臺灣的吳郭魚出口績效，並評估臺灣吳郭魚出口競爭力。吳郭魚為世界各國重要的出口產品，以冷凍吳郭魚為主，包含全魚及魚片。臺灣吳郭魚出口也以這兩種型式為主，並且為主要出口國之一，本文應用 7 種模型，包含出口競爭力指數（XCI）、顯示比較優勢（RCA）、相對進口優勢（RMA）、相對貿易優勢（RTA）、相對競爭力（RC）和 Cobb-Douglass 生產函數，分析臺灣吳郭魚出口競爭力，綜合上述分析結果顯示，吳郭魚的條凍和冷凍魚片在出口國方面，且有良好的績效和競爭力。 Cobb-Douglass 分析顯示匯率（NTD / USD）是影響出口績效的重要因素。臺灣預計通過多種管道，增加兩種產品的出口，進而提升產業的競爭優勢。

The purpose of this thesis are to know tilapia export performance from Taiwan and to evaluate tilapia export competitiveness from Taiwan. Tilapia now become important export products around the world. Tilapia exported in frozen products, whole frozen tilapia and frozen fillet tilapia. Taiwan contribute to both products export, indeed become one of the major exporter countries. Taiwan’s strength and performances analysed using several methods, there were Export Competitiveness Index (XCI), Revealed Comparative Advantage (RCA), Relative Import Advantage (RMA), Relative Trade Advantage (RTA), Relative Competitiveness (RC), and Cobb-Douglass Production function. Based on those calculation, the results indicated that Taiwan has a good competitiveness and good performance among exporter countries for both, frozen tilapia and frozen fillet tilapia. Cobb-Douglass analysis showed that exchange rate (NTD/USD) is a significant factor that may affect export’s performance. Taiwan expected to increase export for both products through many ways, thus leading to
positive trade advantage consistently.
