No results found.The need for developing suitable feeds based on locally available inexpensive ingredients has been widely recognized. Since lack of trained personnel is the main constraint in the development of fish feed technology in developing countries, the FAO/UNDP Aquaculture Development and Coordination Programme (ADCP) organized a special training course in fish feed technology at the College of Fisheries, University of Washington, Seattle, with a view to forming a small corps of fish feed specialists wh o could then be the focal points for future feed development programmes in their respective countries. The first report of the training course was presented in the report ADCP /REP/79/8. This present volume represents the edited texts of lectures presented by different specialists. Some additional material has been included for more complete coverage of the subject. Together, these texts may be considered to constitute a manual on fish feed technology, even though they were not prepared for that purpose. Twenty-six papers are included, under the general headings: (1) Digestion, physiology and anatomy; (2) nutritional bioenergetics; (3) nutritional biochemistry; (4) feedstuffs; (5) feed formulation; (6) feed manufacturing technology; (7) practical diets; and (8) quality control. Appendices include conversion tables, electrical data, and details on pelletability of selective feedstuffs, pellet die specifications, and equipment requirements for an 8 ton an hour feed mill. -

No results found.The second, in a series of three English-language Training Courses in Aquaculture, financed jointly by AGFUND and the Government of Hungary, was held from 3 August to 29 October 1987. Eighteen participants from fourteen countries in Asia, Africa and the Caribbean attended this course on Freshwater Fish-Farm Management. The course was divided between two countres in Hungary, the first 10 weeks being spent at the Fisheries Research Institute, Szarvas, and the last three weeks at the Warmwater Fish Hatchery, Százhalombatta. Instruction took the form of approximately 40% practical classes and 60% lectures. Most of the lecturers were Hungarian experts, with the addition of international consultants recruited by FAO to cover specialized topics when necessary. Field study tours to visit commercial fish-farms and related industries were also arranged. The quality and success of the course was evaluated by the participants in confidential questionnaires. These revealed a high level of sat isfaction with most aspects of the organization and teaching, though some improvements, concerning in particular the amount of practical classes and the level of participaninvolvement were suggested. The Second International Training Course in Aquaculture was thus a successful part of the series. -
