Abstract
The research aims to identify the time stages of the quantity and value of fish production from Lake Burullus fisheries, and to determine the relationship between the quantity of fish production from Lake Burullus as a dependent variable and the following economic variables studied (the value of fish production in million pounds, average wholesale price in thousand pounds per ton, the number of fishing boats in the boat, and the number of Fishermen by fishermen, the amount of wastewater in cubic meters, and finally to identify the most important problems affecting fish production from Lake Burullus in the research area from the viewpoint of the researched fishermen.This research relied on achieving its objectives on descriptive and quantitative economic analysis, where a simple linear regression analysis was used. To estimate the equations of the general time trend of the economic variables associated with the study, the surplus production model of Schaefer was used (1957 Schaefer). Per year, from fishing effort amounted to about 6.32 thousand boats, and the actual production exceeded the permissible production quantity (MSY) during the last years of this period. To study, and that the actual fishing effort exceeds the optimal fishing effort in that lake, which illustrates the extent to which Lake Burullus suffers from the increase in the phenomenon of illegal fishing practices, and then it is expected that the fish stocks of the lake will decrease, which will result in the decline of the lake's fish production in the following years
