Abstract

This study aimed to conduct an economic analysis of enterprises involved in Pearl Mullet fishing in Lake Van. The primary data source for this study was information gathered from 72 fishing enterprises actively engaged in Pearl Mullet fishing in Lake Van. Besides the economic analysis of these enterprises, the factors influencing sales income were estimated using multiple linear regression analysis. It was observed that fuel and oil expenses were the highest, followed by labor expenses and net expenses among the cost components within these enterprises. According to the regression analysis, fuel and oil costs, labor costs, net costs, and other costs were statistically significant (P<0.05). Consequently, the establishment of a fish market in the study area, the implementation of measures to facilitate the use of SCT-free diesel oil, the construction of suitable boatyards for boat maintenance and repair, and the formation of a robust organization are believed to have a positive impact on the sales revenues and profitability of these enterprises.
