dc.descriptionThis document describes the status of inland capture fisheries and aquaculture sector in Ethiopia as of mid-1993. Current production, from the main lakes, is estimated to be only at about 20% of the potential. The sector appears to be in an evolutive phase following price liberalization and the end of the monopolistic situation the State-owned fish marketing corporation had until recently. Individual fishermen are now allowed to operate outside the framework of cooperatives. Over recent years fi sh demand has grown significantly and is forecasted to be at least the double of present production by the year 2000. However, important efforts are required to upgrade fishing technologies, to improve infrastructure support such as feeder roads and market sheds, and to consolidate the institutional and legal framework for servicing the development of the industry.
