No results found.The purpose of the report is the formulation of fisheries policy or rather fisheries development policy of the United Arab Emirates for consideration and approval by the Government. The first part of the report contains a review of the actual development of fisheries as one of the important sectors of the country's economy. It is considered that the fishery resources are next to oil in order of importance of the national resources. A rapid increase in catch took place in the country over the las t ten years or so due to the efforts of the Government aimed at assisting the fishermen through loans, free maintenance services, construction of harbours and establishment of fish markets. The Government also does exploratory fishing in order to identify fish species and fishing grounds capable of supporting commercial operations. The report defines future fisheries policy with particular reference to: national policy objectives; fishery policy objectives; operational objectives. Emphasis has b een laid on the need for coordination of development activities at the Union level to avoid over-exploitation of limited resources and over-capitalization of the industry. -

A pilot sample survey at Port Tawfiq, November- December 1980
1981Also available in:
No results found.One of the general aims of the Project is the improvement of fisheries statistics in the participating countries. No wonder, fisheries statistics may be considered as the scientific base of biological studies and investment investigations. Since accurate fisheries information depends greatly on collecting statistical data on a high level of performance, it follows that securing well-trained personnel is essential. Taking into account the continuity of collecting fisheries data, the Project gave much attention to theoretical and practical statistical training of counterparts, supervisors and enumerators in each of the participating countries. To guarantee a full comprehension of statistical operations, besides obtaining valuable information on the total and composition of catches, pilot sample surveys were established as follows: Sudan at Khur Kelab, Saudi Arabia at Tuwwal, Egypt at Port Tawfiq. Although it is well known that a comprehensive study of a fishery, necessitates collecting s tatistical data for a period of at least a year, this report may throw some light on Port Tawfiq Fishing Centre and, in particular, may serve as a simple guide to counterparts in the participating countries when tabulating results.
