-Abstract
The study was conducted to investigate the impact of development and purification processes as well as raising the efficiency of Lake Burullus on the economic variables that affect its fish production. The study was based on two sources of data: the statistical recorded data during ten years before (2000 to 2009) and ten years from the beginning of the development project (2010-2020). The other source was the data collected during the field trips by interviewing the local fishermen and officials of the company performing the purification and development operations in the lake. Both descriptive and quantitative economic analysis were used for the variables under study using standard statistical and economic models. The different phases of the development and purification project were reviewed, and its impact was measured in order to study the evolution of the quantity and value of fish production in Lake Burullus, the development of fish production efficiency per fishing units and fishermen during the two studied periods, then studying seasonal fluctuations, future expectations and instability coefficient of fish production during the cleansing and development operations. The results of the analysis showed a positive impact of the cleansing and development operations in the lake on all economic variables under study.
