Descripción

One of the main activities of the African Regional Aquaculture Centre established in Port Harcourt, Nigeria, under the UNDP/FAO Regional Project RAF/76/009 (Establishment of an African Regional Aquaculture Centre) is multidisciplinary research to solve problems encountered in large-scale application of aquaculture systems and to improve the technologies involved. The farming systems selected for research are those that were selected for production programmes in the national ten-year development plans prepared by representatives of countries that participated in the first Regional Workshop on Aquaculture Planning organised by the FAO/UNDP Aquaculture Development and Coordination Programme (ADCP) in Accra, Ghana, July 1975.
