No results found.The first in a series of three English-language International Training Courses in Aquaculture, financed jointly by AGFUND and the Government of Hungary, was held from 13 April to 10 July 1987. Eighteen participants from fifteen countries in Asia, Africa and the Caribbean attended this course in Warmwater Fish Hatchery Management. The course was divided between two centres in Hungary, the first two months being spent at the Warmwater Fish Hatchery, Százhalombatta, and the final month at the F ish Culture Research Institute, Szárvás. Instruction took the form of approximately 50 percent practical classes and 50 percent lectures. Most of the teachers were Hungarian experts, with the addition of international consultants recruited by FAO to cover specialist topics when necessary. Field study tours to visit commercial fish-farms and ancillary industries were also arranged. The quality and success of the course was evaluated by the participants in confidential questionnaires. These reve aled a high level of satisfaction with most aspects of the organization and teaching, though some improvements to the design of practical classes, allowing more personal student involvement in tasks, were considered desirable for future courses. -

Book (stand-alone)Technical bookManaging pesticides in agriculture and public health
A compendium of FAO and WHO guidelines and other resources - Second edition
2021This second edition of the compendium provides a brief description of all the technical guidance documents, manuals, toolkits, databases and other resources for pesticide management developed by FAO and WHO. These resources support the standards outlined in the International Code of Conduct on Pesticide Management by providing detailed information and guidance on how to manage pesticides at the different stages of their life cycle, i.e. from production to disposal of waste. The resources are principally intended for use by governments in low- and middle-income countries but they may also be useful to other stakeholders. The resources cover both agricultural and public health uses of pesticides. The documents listed in this compendium have been prepared, reviewed and adopted by FAO and WHO expert groups including, since 2007, the FAO/ WHO Joint Meeting on Pesticide Management (JMPM). The compendium will be updated regularly in the future. Older documents included in the compendium are still considered valid as the issues they address have not changed. -
