| dc.description | “Integrated fish farming is a diversified and coordinated way of farming or producing agricultural items in the fish farms with fish as the main product. The items produced are to be used either as source of feeds and fertilizer, source of additional income or both. The wise integration of these items in a fish farm promotes the full utilization of its land area and recycling of wastes and by-products, minimizes the operation expenses in feeds and fertilizer, improves the living conditions of th e workers due to the increases of income and maintains a balanced ecosystem.” This statement appears in the Back-to-Office Report of one of the trainees, Mr. Kapa La'a from Papua New Guinea, who participated in the second training course (1982) on integrated fish farming at the Asian-Pacific Regional Research and Training Centre for Integrated Fish Farming in Wuxi, Jiangsu Province, China. The Centre is one of the regional lead centres of the Network of Aquaculture Centres in Asia and the Pacifi c (NACA). Under the FAO/UNDP regional project for establishing the Network, the Centre has organized the four-month training course annually since 1981 and trained a total of 208 senior aquaculture technical personnel from 43 countries in the Asia-Pacific region, Africa, the Middle East, Latin America and Europe. This book is meant to meet the need for an updated textbook on the Chinese systems of carp polyculture and integrated aquaculture-agriculture. It will be used for subsequent training courses on the subject and also as a reference for the past trainees and others interested in integrated fish farming as practiced in China. | |
