Aquaculture farmers affected by polluted water have taken action over a subsidy delay. The farmers blocked all lanes on the Rama II Road in Samut Songkram, Thailand, causing a 10 km traffic jam.
The 500 fish and mussel farmers involved were unhappy after failing to receive state assistance after fish died
following the deterioration of the quality of sea water in 2012.
The aquaculture outlook in Peru looks rosy according to a new Fitch Ratings report. The country is set to benefit from increasing global fish consumption spurred by rapid economic growth in
developing countries and a movement toward healthier diets in wealthier
countries.
Pacific Island fisheries managers have significantly improved their
knowledge and capacity to manage their crucial fish resources over the
past three years, thanks largely to the European Union’s €9 million
funding for the Secretariat of the Pacific Community (SPC) SciCOFish
programme.
The four-year programme that aims to assist Pacific Island countries and territories (PICTs) to better manage their coastal and oceanic (largely tuna) fisheries through improved knowledge, skills and data collection.
