| Abstract | ||||
| The aim of this study is to throw the light on the current situation of the Nile fisheries in the Egyptian fishery economy in the period between (1991-2001).The study showed that although the Nile fisheries has I~n area of about 1.4% of the Egyptian fisheries area but it's production is 12.~% only of the Egyptian fisheries production through the period of study.The study has. revealed that fish catch and fish income from Nile fisheries has shown an ascending secular trend over the period of study.Annual growth rate of Nile fisheries production was (8.3%), and annual growth of Nile fisheri~s income was (5.7%). this is due to the high annual fish prices. Catch par u~it of effort (CPUE) was about 3.9 Ton I boat annually, and about 2.7 Ton I rnaa annually as the number of fishermen was very low in 1998 Tilap < /em>ia sp .. Bargas sp ... c/arias consists about 66.4% of the Nile catch composition and the seasonally showed that the production was high through Summer and Autum and low through Winter and Spring. Upper governorates share by about 68.7p < /em>'% of the Nile production and the lower governorates by 31.28%. The ~tudy has defined the required means to conserve the Nile rishery resources and means to develop it. | ||||
