Synopsis (short abstract) The FAO/CP World Bank Cooperative Programme conducted fishery missions in the Yemen Arab Republic leading to the preparation of a fishery development project. Their work has been based on the findings of FAO Trust Fund Projects. It was decided to carry out an intensive survey programme (June/July 1979 ) aiming to provide quick estimates of the required information, through the application of 3 surveys , in a period of 5 weeks. In addition to that, an Aerial Frame Survey had to be conducted in Se ptember 1979. In order to give more complete information, 2 more surveys were undertaken in addition to the proposed ones. In a period of 16 days, the 5 surveys carried out simultaneously, covered 6 landing places from Luhaya to Hodeidah in addition to marketing statistical studies at 4 inland fish markets. Although Jizan was not originally scheduled to be included, the report is supplemented by the study “An approach for estimating the number of Yemeni fishing units and their catches at Jizan” . It is worth noting that the Aerial Frame Survey was postponed indefinitely. The results have provided solutions to a number of problems which were encountered in previous visits. Nevertheless, the findings brought to light a number of problems that require further examination at Jizan (Saudi Arabia).
