Descripción
Asia dominates global aquaculture production, with the regionproviding around 90 percent of global aquaculture production. Globaland regional demand for fish is expected to increase significantly as aresult of population increase and changing dietary habits inthe coming decades. The further growth of aquaculture in Asiais crucial to meet such an increase in demand. In order to supportnational efforts to improve the planning and management ofthe aquaculture sector, FAO helped to develop a toolkit addressingplanning and management objectives for the aquaculture industry. The current project supported the development of operationalmanuals for the pilot application of these planning and managementtools and the development of related training materials for theselected participating countries (Indonesia, Thailand and Viet Nam). The project also supported national and local capacity developmentin the pilot application of selected tools in these countries throughregional and national training activities.
