The report is an initiative of the Agriculture and Rural Development Department (ARD) of the World Bank. Aquaculture is the fastest-growing food sector in the world and is expected to contribute more than 50 percent of total fish consumption by 2020. Just over 90 percent of aquaculture production originates in Asia, and nearly 70 percent in China alone. Efforts to expand aquaculture production to meet the ever increasing worldwide demand for seafood continue. Although the boom in international demand for shrimp has drawn attention to this sector, the development potential of aquaculture stems partly from the variety of products, production systems, and scales of production it covers. In comparison with the dominance of large-scale coastal aquaculture systems in Latin America, North America, and Europe, the vast majority of aquaculture production in Asia is carried out in rural areas, is integrated into existing farming systems, takes places on a small scale, depends on the cooperation of family members, and involves large numbers of the rural population. Aquaculture is a promising business venture in many contexts, and the private sector drives and plays a major role in this. The aim of this study is to guide two potential World Bank operations in Vietnam and Nigeria with the aquaculture value chain as their focus. This paper describes the specific contexts of Vietnam and Nigeria and recommends concrete project entry points and actions for gender integration, applying the lessons learned from past experiences.

There is considerable variability in aquaculture production within the study areas of Gucha, Meru and Taita/Taveta regions. Aquaculture activities involve the production of Nile tilapia and African catfish using earthen ponds. Most ponds are individually owned (93.8%). Most of the ponds were constructed and stocked between January 2007 and July 2011, which reflects the change in strategy by the government towards promoting aquaculture. Farmer’s pond sizes are averaging at 300m2 an aspect highly promoted by Economic Stimulus Programme (ESP). Most farmers indicated that they culture Nile tilapia (99%) at a stocking density of 3 fish/m2. The same applies to. African catfish while Gold fish is stocked at 10 fish /m2. The latter is mainly cultured in Meru region where there is high demand for ornamental fish. Fisheries Department was the main source of seed to farmers (40.5%), National Aquaculture Research and Development Training Centre, supplied 30.3%, Dominion farm contributed 13.2% while small-scale hatcheries run by individual farmers supplied 16%. Uga and Sigma feed manufacturers were the main fish feed providers (93.4%), while on farm feeds comprised of 6.6%. The profits ranged from 25 -75% depending on management and seed and feed quality. While the farmers acknowledged the impotence of aquaculture they face several challenges, which included quality feed, seed, technical advice and predation. Unpublished

Se relaciona con la línea de investigación de estudios Socioculturales y capacitación para el trabajo; se encuadra en los niveles educativos superior y posee una metodología de enfoque etnomatemático. Se inicia con una reseña histórica de las teselaciones, desarrollo teórico, diferencia entre teselación y tesela y su realizador más reconocido. Se implementan tres actividades didácticas. La primera consta en la reproducción de una imagen en una hoja tipo cuadricula dada. Para la segunda actividad, a partir de una tesela deben encontrar un patrón para cubrir una superficie plana dada en su totalidad. La última actividad, con un círculo de papel y un patrón dado, crean un copo de nieve mediante simetría. El objetivo del mismo es profundizar conceptos de la teoría de simetrías saliendo de forma magistral tradicional de dar los conceptos y se busca estimular la capacidad de abstracción en los participantes del taller.

The paper presents bighead carp broodstock management, an integral part of hatchery techniques as it will determine the quality of resulting fry and fingerlings. Proper methods on the selection and management of broodstock are discussed.

Bighead carp is preferred among other species for culture because of its fast growth and high survival rate. Pen and cage culture of carps in Laguna de Bay is sustained by the availability of juveniles as a result of improved hatchery technology. Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center and the Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources have been conducting research programs to enhance the carp culture industry in the country.

The Elastomer Visible Implant system (EVI) is arelatively new technique for batch marking fish. The aimof this study was to assess retention rates and thepossible effects of tagging on the growth and mortalityof barbel, Barbus barbus, (81-197mm, fork length) overapproximately 2 months using a syringe injection system.
