Resumen
Descripción
Tilapia is the most consumed farmed fish in the Philippines, with an average yearly consumption of 4.6 kg per person, yet the tilapia farming sector has declined by 35 percent in the last eight years, due to climate-induced challenges. Thus there is a considerable threat not only to the livelihoods of farmers and fisherfolk, but also to the country’s food security. This project sought to provide innovative knowledge and technical services and products to farmers in order to increase the resilien ce of the tilapia farming sector to climate or weather risks.
