ProjectCosts and earnings in artisanal fisheries: methodology and lessons learned from case studies 1997
Also available in:
Development strategy during the 1960 and 1970s was based on the philosophy that developing countries lacked improved technology and capital for speeding up their development. Industrialization was promoted in order to capitalize on the abundant fish resources. However, the anticipated expansion of the economy did not happen and the development approach shifted towards an integrated rural strategy where emphasis is put on the community as a whole to upgrade incomes and the quality of li fe through technical assistance and the active participation of fisher folk and the community. -

Book (stand-alone)Tonle sap fisheries: a case study on floodplain gillnet fisheries in Siem Reap, Cambodia 2001
Also available in:
No results found.Located in the central plains of Cambodia, the Tonle Sap lake is one of the richest inland fisheries waters in the world. Linked to the Mekong river by a 100 km-long channel, the lake is flushed and swollen to more than four times its normal size by the annual monsoon flooding in the Mekong. The lake and the channel yield two-thirds of Cambodia's annual inland fisheries catch, which accounts for nearly 90 percent of the country's total fisheries production. The study describes different fisherie s habitats and assesses catches by the popular Tonle Sap fishing gear in two communes in the northwestern Siem Reap province bordering the lake.
