No results found.The IFIP project started in January 1989 with the main objective of promoting a more effective and rational exploitation of the fisheries resources of major water bodies of Eastern, Central and Southern Africa. The project is executed by the Food and Agriculture Organisation of the United Nations (FAO), and funded by the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) for a duration of four years.There are eleven countries and three intergovernmental organisations participating in the project: B urundi, Ethiopia, Kenya, Malawi, Mozambique, Uganda, Rwanda, Tanzania, Zambia, Zaire, Zimbabwe, The Communaute. Economique des Pays des Grands Lacs (CEPGL), The Preferential Trade Area for Eastern and Southern African States (PTA) and the Southern African Development Coordination Conference (SADCC). The immediate objectives of the project are: (i) to strengthen regional collaboration for the rational development and management of inland fisheries, particularly with respect to shared wate r bodies; (ii) to provide advisory services and assist Governments in sectoral and project planning; (iii) to strengthen technical capabilities through training; and (iv) to establish a regional information base. Traditional fish processors use pit ovens to smoke fish in the Kigoma region of Lake Tanganyika. The smoked product is of low quality and the smoking process consumes a lot of fuelwood. The paper reviews the attempts made by the FAO/Netherlands project in Kigoma in collaboration with the IFIP project, to improve the smoking of fish by introducing the chorkor smoker to the processors. It goes on to describe the chorkor smoker and how fish processing technology extension operations should be structured to meet the needs of the fishing community. -
DocumentTechno-economic feasibility study for fish smoking enterprise fisheries development project, Hurghada Red Sea Governorate 1982
Also available in:
No results found.One of the objectives of the Project for Development of Fisheries in Areas of the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden, is to conduct economic and investment research work and studies through the preparation of feasibility studies aiming at developing and modernizing fisheries industries in the participating countries of the project of which the Arab Republic of Egypt is a member. With this objective in mind a feasibility study (RAB/77/008/21) on the technical and economic aspects was prepared for upgrading and expanding the activities of the Fisheries Development Project in Hurghada, Red Sea Governorate. The study centred on adding new fishing units and the establishment of some shore facilities needed for improving and activating productive, servicing and marketing operations. A comprehensive and integrated study was prepared for this purpose complete with financial and economic analysis and evaluation. In response, the Red Sea Governorate has taken some positive steps to implement sections of t he study. The purchase of refrigerated transport trucks, construction of 50 tons capacity cold stores in Hurghada and the ongoing construction of an ice plant of 20 ton/day capacity are among these positive steps. Complementary to these developmental steps, and as the Fisheries Development Project constitutes the basis of planned development, this study has been prepared on the feasibility of establishing a fish smoking unit in Hurghada.
