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 Thumbnail AvailableBook (series)A review of length-based approaches to assessing fish stocks 1992
Also available in:
This document reviews the several fish stock assessment methods based on length-frequency analysis. Emphasis is placed on sampling and collection of length-frequency data, to the estimation of population parameters such as growth, mortality and recruitment and the estimation of catch selectivity. Attention is given to the conversion of length to age using age-length keys, slicing length-frequency composition, and using modes. It reviews long-and short-term effects of changes in selection and fis hing mortality, and discusses methods for long-term assessments and for short-term projections. The manual gives several examples of the most common methods used and stresses the advantages of using personal computers and the most recent software for data processing and analysis. -
