Abstract

Fish farming is a form of aquaculture, which involves growing it in cages or ponds as an investment activity and a part of economic development. Fish production and marketing represent an interconnected and integrated system of production and marketing activities that contribute to providing animal protein, as the sequential interconnection between these activities leads to influencing each other through cost and the effectiveness of their production. This research aims to shadow light to the estimation of both technical and economic efficiency of fish farming farms two varieties (Tilapia and Buri) in Kafr el-Sheikh governorate which were cultivated by using Data Envelopment Analysis Program (DEAP). The results found that the value of the variance inflation factor was equal to 1, which means that there is no linear relationship, and the value of the coefficient of determination (R2) was about 0.95, which means that about 95% of the changes in the quantity of fish production are due to factors reflected by the time component.
