The development of fish resources is one of the most important economic activities to deal with the problem of providing food, which is one of the most important problems facing the Egyptian society. The lake is the second largest and most important inland natural lakes in Egypt, and the most fertile as well where it has the most important components of natural fish breeder, 43% of the production of natural lakes. However, fish production in the lake has deteriorated in recent decades as a result of many environmental and human reasons. The study aims at: (1) the relative importance of the value of the lake production; (3) seasonal productivity fluctuations in LakeBurullus, (4) the statistical estimate of the function of fish production in LakeBurullus fisheries. The study reached (1) Manpower engaged in the fisheries of Lake Al- Burullus about 15.6 thousand fishermen, representing about 20.6% of the total fishermen In the Egyptian fisheries in 2014, El- Burullus Lake contributes about 18.6% of the total Egyptian fish production and about 3.8% of the total Egyptian fish income in 2014. 2) The fish production in the lake of Al-BurullusLake reveal a clear seasonal pattern, Summer and Autumn. (3) Results of the Study revealed that, the most determing studied factor of fish Production from lake Burollus, within the Period of the Study (1995-2014), is the average whole-Sale fish price (1000 E.P./ton). | ||||
