Abstract

This research delves into the relationship between climate and fish and livestock production in Egypt, paying special attention to regional differences. It aims to shed light on how climate impacts these industries by comparing Dakahlia Governorate, which has a Mediterranean climate, with Qena Governorate, where the climate is desert-like.

The study also looks into the statistical connections between various climate factors and production levels, using a simple linear regression model. This helps clarify how these elements interact and provides insights into monthly fish production in the areas being studied.

Moreover, the research highlights the main diseases affecting fish and livestock production, particularly those that are caused by or related to climate extremes.

The study also examines the impact of climate on animal husbandry, the diseases affecting this production, and the distribution of animal species in the areas studied.

It further explores how climate influences milk production in animals, the differences between species, and the effects of climate extremes on livestock mortality in the region.

Furthermore, the research outlines key recommendations to consider when starting fish and livestock farming.

Finally, the study presents the main findings, followed by the data sources, books, and references used.
