dc.descriptionObservations have shown that there is a decrease in catch from the lagoons in Mauritius and this has probably led to the development of an aquaculture industry for the production of fish by alternate means from fishing. In fact, aquaculture is a viable alternative to fishing and can increase fish production, create jobs and indirectly create additional income for coastal communities. However, many constraints have impeded the success of some aquaculture development projects, mainly because of th e lack of monitoring at the technical level, incorrect selection of beneficiaries and insufficient attention to the technical and financial planning of this activity. The drafting of this Smart FICHE is a follow up to the project "Support for sustainable aquaculture development through the promotion of small-scale cage culture in the lagoon of Mauritius." This project was developed through a close collaboration between the Fishermen Investment Trust (FIT) and SmartFish Programme. The aim was to promote knowledge of aquaculture and its development, both for the fishers and the investors interested in diversifying their activities.
