There were 23 participants at the workshop -official representatives of four countries plus BOBP staff and resource persons, most of whom had had field experience. The approach of the workshop was “participatory”, and emphasized discussion and field trips rather than lectures. It was the participants who provided most of the information, identified the problems to be discussed, drew up guidelines for project, and suggested follow-up ideas for BOBP membercountries. -

Improved strains of ducks have been introduced into the country and their production commercially and by the rural population is increasing rapidly, in turn increasing the demand for ducklings from the Government Fisheries Development Centres. Observations were made at the three centres and recommendations were made for improvements to present practices to increase productio n of duck eggs and ducklings. Training in duck husbandry was also given to technicians currently involved in this field. This report contains detailed information, with illustrations, of improved types of duck housing facilities, using mostly local materials, and procedures for selection, care and management of eggs, ducklings and breeding ducks and their distribution. Advantages and comparative costs of different breeds of ducks are analysed and introduction of an additional breed of duck i s suggested. Centralized locations for breeding and distribution of ducklings is recommended and the facilities needed are described. Financial and technical assistance is recommended to encourage the private sector to enter into duckling or meat-duck production on a small commercial scale. Other schemes for commercial duck raising are described and costs are given for buildings, feeding and other requirements. The appendixes list feeding requirements and costs of egg, duckling and meat-duck pro duction, as well as cost of facilities.
