Abstract

The study aims to estimate fish farms desert land and the problems and obstacles faced by the aquaculture pelvic territorial desert in Egypt as well as the efficiency of proposals and solutions to those problems to raise fish production efficiency of fish farms. And through the preliminary data that have been collected through the questionnaire prepared specifically for this purpose, which are grouped against the personal respondents field study area the Valley of Rayan in Fayoum governorate and regions Nubaria and Abu Matamir County lake data were collected from farms that have been obtained from the wealth areas Data Fish in all of the province of Fayoum and Beheira manner comprehensive inventory to cover in 2012.  It was found from the statistical analysis of the functions of the production of fish farms Fayoum Beheira groups first spatial and second that the best images that have been reached is the picture logarithmic double that production in the first production stage non-economic, stages law of diminishing returns, where the total production increases increasingly raise any addition of these elements. It turns out that fish producers first and second for both Fayoum Beheira governorate category and still have a chance to expand in the fisheries. Reduced flexibility for the right one first and second for both Fayoum Beheira governorates to the marginal costs less than average costs, reflecting the increasing returns to scale means that the production of both categories in the first phase as category refers. Also show that non-profit Fairy investor farms first and second category Fayoum governorate reached 0.48 ، 0.49 farms while the first and second category Beheira Governorate farms 0.42, 0.45 ..mma means that reached the highest investment farms first and second category Fayoum Governorate farms first category and the second province of the lake to the high fixed costs (rent). The study found that there are some problems faced by the farmers to the categories governorates of Fayoum and Beheira represented the most prominent of these problems in the high prices of feed. While rising prices fry fish and of chemical fertilizers was its effect was clear to both categories of Beheira. And the opinion of some farmers who surveyed the low price of fish.

Find and recommended the introduction of the possibility of fish farming in the new land (desert) and increase the number of fish farms and fish hatcheries. And that there is a preference for horizontal expansion for vertical expansion in the long term Sahara is the only alternative to the horizontal expansion in agriculture and livestock production to accommodate population growth and create jobs and reduce the unemployment problem and avoid a lot of raised serious on . product and manufacture feed the community high and cheap nutritional value. The state delivery of services and facilities in new urban communities to longer attractive areas
