ProjectPromote Scaling-Up of Innovative Rice-Fish Farming and Climate-Resilient Tilapia Pond Culture Practices for Blue Growth in Asia - TCP/RAS/3603 2020
Also available in:
No results found.In the past two decades, Asia has been responsible forapproximately 90 percent of global aquacultureproduction. Global and regional demand for fish isexpected to increase significantly in coming decades as aresult of population increase and potential changes inpeople’s dietary habits. Further growth of aquaculture inAsia is crucial to meeting this demand. It has beenprojected that Asian aquaculture production will need toincrease by 60 percent by 2030.In order to support the sustainable growth of aquaculturein the Asia and Pacific Region, FAO began to implement aRegional Initiative on Sustainable Intensification ofAquaculture for Blue Growth in early 2014. Addressingtwo major challenges faced by the aquaculture industry inthe region - the need to improve the use of naturalresources while increasing the productivity and resilienceof small farmers in the context of climate change andother natural and socioeconomic uncertainties - theinitiative supported field projects in the participatingcountries to promote innovative aquaculture farmingpractices, including demonstration projects of rice-fishfarming in Indonesia and rice-shrimp farming in Viet Nam,and a country project to build the resilience of tilapiafarmers in the Philippines. All the field projectsimplemented under the initiative have achievedremarkable results in terms of upgrading farming practicesand generating knowledge and experiences that can beshared with other countries in the region.The current project was formulated to support the scaling-up of the innovative aquaculture farming systems andpractices proven to be successful under the regionalinitiative. Its aim was to disseminate and demonstrateinnovative rice-fish farming and climate-resilient tilapiapond culture practices in the five focus countries and tostrengthen human capacity and the enabling environmentfor the scaling-up -
MeetingTCP/RAS/3603 Concept Note for Regional Training & Verification Workshop on Technical guidelines for innovative rice-fish farming and climate resilient Tilapia culture practices 2017
Also available in:
No results found.In order to support the scaling up of the innovative aquaculture farming systems/practices for better efficiency and resilience that have proven successful through the earlier regional initiative supported country projects, this regional TCP project “Promote scaling-up of innovative rice-fish farming and climate resilient Tilapia pond culture practices for blue growth in Asia” is formulated to address the need of most regional initiative focus countries. This Regional TCP project aims to effecti vely disseminate and demonstrate the innovative rice-fish farming and climate resilient tilapia pond culture practices in five regional initiative focus countries and strengthen the human capacity and enabling environment for scaling up selected innovative and climate resilient aquaculture practices in all participating countries. -
