Abstract :
The fishing in Iran's south sea resources and Persian Gulf Zone is so important for these areas and country's economy. Fishing business makes a various employment and incoming opportunities for natives, and it has an essential role to provide a Protein, and nurture families of urban and rural areas. Up to 40 commercial fish species with a shrimp are fished in Persian Gulf. A systematic management and programming in marine resources are essential for preserving sustainability in marine resource, and achieve to economic, biological, social and political goals. In this paper, the results of running a programming model are shown in short and long run scenarios. Generally, the results of mentioned scenarios show a decrease of activity and number of 20-50 or up to 50 tones fleet's vessels, and replacement of them by the first and second class vessels (20-50 tones vessels).According to these results, there is a decreasing a vessels' activity in central and southern fishing areas, and there is an increasing an activity (effort and number of vessels) in northern fishing areas. It's an important point that the results in long run scenario are more conceptual than short run scenario, and has a further change in comparison of base scenario.
