| Abstract | SUMMARY : This chapter is comprised of two parts. In the first part the findings of the chapters 2, 3, 4 and 5 are discussed, in the second part the management aspects of the Bahrain shrimp fishery are discussed. The calculated MSY of the Bahrain shrimp fishery is 1,282 tonnes at the optimum effort level (fopt) 164,459 artisanal fishing hours. This fopt is equivalent to 73 full time artisanal boats. In 1993 the number of licensed vessels increased to 214 artisanal and 4 industrial boats. This indicates over-exploitation of the shrimp stock. Several areas were identified for further improvements: (1) emphasize the role of fishermen in the management process; (2) protection of areas vital to shrimp fishery; (3) develop a single fishing strategy for the shrimping fleet; (4) enforcement of fishing ban period; (5) enforcement of fishing ban areas; (6) reduction of the fishing effort; (7) promote alternatives for shrimp fishing. Emphasis was placed on the importance of the enforcement for the success of Bahrain shrimp management. Further, the future investigations for continuing management of shrimp fishery were highlighted. | |
