| dc.description | This report is the outcome of a two-month mission to the Yemen Arab Republic in April-June 1982. It gives background information regarding previous spiny lobster surveys and describes exploratory fishing undertaken by diving and through the use of tangle nets. The marketing situation in the country is discussed and recommendations are given for handling and processing lobster. Some basic recommendations are suggested for regulating the fishery. It is concluded that the-two species of spiny lobst er found in the coastal waters are not present in sufficient numbers to encourage large scale commercial exploitation. It is recommended that future exploitation should be encouraged as an artisanal fishery through free diving and that further exploratory fishing should be undertaken using tangle nets. The marketing system should be improved and further information should be collected on present catches, including those taken by foreign vessels. | |
