DocumentReconnaissance survey of fishery harbours and landing places 1971
Also available in:
No results found.There is great variety in the development of harbours and fish-landing places in the Indian Ocean region, from simple beach-landing places with no services, to fishery ports with all facilities. Information is lacking for through analysis of port-development potentialities in the region, and comprehensive survey would require months to acquire data. Port development is expensive and requires considerable planning, not only in fish-related procedures but also in town design to control traffic, st orage and expansion, among other matters. Most countries around the Indian Ocean lack the skills to design and construct modern and efficient fishery-port facilities, and several are seeking assistance in early planning. There are few locations in the region ready for the development of an international industrial fishery; most are concerned with developing middle-distance fisheries for vessels up to 30 m long, operating within 100 miles off shore. By far the majority of Indian Ocean activity is in small-boat traditional fishery. -

DocumentReport to the Ministry of Agriculture and Fisheries, United Arab Emirates 1975
Also available in:
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.
