    The intensification and further development of freshwater aquaculture in India urgently requires knowledge, research facilities and research and expertise on fish diseases and fish health protection. This report describes the initiation of work in this area at the Freshwater Aquaculture Research and Training Centre of the Central Inland Fisheries Research Institute, as part of the FAO/UNDP Project IND/75/031. Work accomplished in theoretical and practical training of young scientists on fish diseases and research methodologies, as well as assistance in establishing adequate conditions for research are described. During the practical training three fish diseases were diagnosed that had so far not been reported in India. In a pond experiment set up for training, the efficiency of antibiotic administration during handling in preventing post-handling losses due to columnaris disease was clearly demonstrated. Considering the present and future needs for research on fish diseases and h ealth protection and the probable role of FARTC in it, proposals on organization of work in this area were prepared. It is suggested that the research team work as the Unit for Ichthyopathology and Fish Health Protection. The Unit should cooperate closely with other research teams and scientists at FARTC. Fields of work in the Unit and proposals for five initial 3 year research programmes are outlined. The research projects are oriented towards development of methodologies for detection, identif ication and the inventory of diseases in composite fish culture.
