    This report examines the possibilities of developing aquaculture in the Yemen Arab Republic. Although the physical conditions along the country's Red Sea coastline are not particularly favorable to such development, two areas are identified as being suitable for limited pond culture. Other areas are considered suitable for pen and cage culture. A number of species occur in the capture fisheries which would be suitable for aquaculture. It is pointed out that investigations are required to ascerta in the availability of juveniles of species intended for capture and of fish feed constituents. Trained personnel and facilities are also essential. A preliminary action plan for aquaculture development over a four-year period is outlined, giving estimated expenditures and possible revenues. However, it is recommended that, before any activities are commenced, further survey by a multidisciplinary team be carried out.
