    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.

    Intensification of freshwater fish culture and training project, India - Establishing diagnostic work and research on (freshwater) fish diseases and fish health monitoring at FARTC (Freshwater Aquaculture Research and Training Centre) (CIFRI), Dhauli 1982

    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.
