This report summarizes the proceedings of an international seminar on Gracilaria production and utilization in the Bay of Bengal, held in Songkhla. Thailand. 23-27 October 1989. It also includes 23 papers presented at the seminar by participants from various countries. A bibliography on Gracilaria, which was prepared in connection with the seminar, is being published separately. The seminar was held to review current status of knowledge on the subject worldwide and to help point future work directions. The seminar and the report on it were jointly sponsored by two projects of the Bay of Bengal Programme (BOBP)-the Small-Scale Fisherfolk Communities Project and the Post-Harvest Fisheries Project. The Small-Scale Fisherfolk Communities Project of the Bay of Bengal Programme began in 1987 for a duration of five years. It is funded by SIDA (Swedish International Development Authority) and DANIDA (Danish International Development Authority). Its main aim is to develop, demons trate and promote technologies and methodologies to improve the conditions of fisherfolk in seven countries bordering the Bay of Bengal-Bangladesh, India, Indonesia, Malaysia, Maldives, Sri Lanka and Thailand. The Post-Harvest Fisheries Project is executed and funded by the ODA (Overseas Development Administration of the United Kingdom).
