No results found.This document brings together the 28 papers presented at the Expert Consultation on Inlnad Fishery Enhancements, held in Dhaka, Bangladesh from 7 to 11 April 1997. The Expert Consultation was jointly organized by FAO and the Department for Intenational Development of teh United Kingdom and was hosted by the government of Bangladesh. The major objective of the Expert Consultation was to promote better understanding of how various factors fit together for successful implementation of inland fisher ies enhancement programmes. Accordingly, the papers span a broad range of topics - technical, socio-economic, cultural and administrative. Techniques, geographic constraints, problems of information gathering and monitoring, and genetics are addressed. Because of its relative importance as a an enhancement technique, stocking received much attention; areas discussed include strategies, modelling and prediction of results, health management and fitness of stocked fish as well as stocking experien ces by type ot water body. Cage culture - its importnace, promotion through extension and limitations - is also considered. Other papers cover social and economic benefits and their distribution, institutions and self-and participatory management. Country reviews dealing very broadly with enhancement are also included. This FAO Fisheries Technical Paper is a companion to teh Report of the Expert Consultation on Inland Fishery Enhancements, FAO Fisheries Report No. 559, which deals with the admin istratve aspects of the meeting and sets out its conclusions and recommendations. -

No results found.This is a weighty report of formidable bulk and understandably so. Rarely has a Workshop in Bangladesh or anywhere else been so comprehensive in mandate or assembled such an array of fisheries expertise. Why was the workshop held? Quite simply, to give effect to Bangladesh's vision of fisheries development and management, set forth in its Perspective Development Plan for 1995-2010. That plan seeks to increase production of fish, manage and conserve fisheries resources for present and futur e generations, encourage private enterprise, increase overall economic growth, and generate employment and incomes, particularly for the rural poor and unemployed youth. These are comprehensive goals, and call for clear guidelines and strategies to address the problems and concerns of fisheries. The National Workshop on Fisheries Resources Development and Management, in Bangladesh, held 29 October-1 November, 1995, in Dhaka, sought to evolve such guidelines and strategies. The Worksh op's recommendations are wide-ranging. They relate to the management of inland fisheries, brackishwater and marine fisheries resources; the management needs of freshwater, marine and brackishwater aquaculture; integrated management of land and water; financing of all these sectors; the legal framework for fishing community development and management; the marketing of fish and fish products. In sum, the Workshop (sponsored jointly by the FAO through BOBP, and the ODA) left nothing uncovered or untouched. The report of this Workshop should therefore be a valuable document - for research and reference, and for the needs of everyone who is concerned with fisheries development and management in Bangladesh.
