Determine the relationship between their knowledge level concerning crayfish propagation and control methods as a dependent variable and each of the studied independent variables. Data were collected by personal interviews using questionnaire during January, February and March 2005. The sample was 120 farmers and the workers at fish farms of Sharkia, Dakahleya and Domiatta Governorates. Means, Standard Deviation, Frecuencies, Percentage, and Simple Correlation Coefficient were used to present and analyze data. The results of this study can be summarized in:
Knowledge level of 80.8% of respondents was Medam and low. The infetation of the fields and farms of 71.6% of the respondents are large. 97.5% of the respondents use the' chemical control methods. 53.3% of them burn the crayfish, and 5.8% only know the biological control methods. There is a significant positive relationship between the knowledge level of the respondents about crayfish and its control recommendations as a dependant variable and educational level and extension services as an independent variables. There is a significant negative relationship between the the knowledge level of the respondents about crayfish and its control recommendations as a dependant variable and age as an independent variable.
