The problem of research is that despite the multiplicity of fish sources in the province of North Sinai, but statistics indicates a decline in production Fish from about 7282 tons in 2000 to about 5565 tons in 2016. The research aims at the general study of the current status of the craft Dabah Bardawil lagoon and used research method of descriptive and quantitative analysis in explaining economic variables. The research was based on data published in Bardawil lagoon. Preliminary data were collected through a field study of a random sample of 180 strata. The results indicate that the mullet is ranked first in terms of catch quantity. While lute and grouper occupy the last rank of the catch fish. The results indicated that the total costs amounted to about L.E 58.45 thousand. The variable costs contributed about L.E 40.61 thousand. The maximum value of the profits amounted to L.E 7511.1. While the optimum size amounted to L.E 2739.1 and the net return of the compound L.E 27.88 thousand and the return rate of the investor L.E 47.7%. | ||
