DTAP BIncome Generation for Small-Scale Fishers and Farmers Presented by Kwamena K. Quagrainie Purdue University, USA
Number of New Biotechnologies Developed • 07QSD01NC – In progress – use of insulin-like growth factor-I as a biomarker of growth in tilapia and other aquaculture species is near full development. • 07SFT06PU – In progress – local plant species of Moringa oleifera & Leucaena leucocephala are being examined for use as protein sources for fish feed
Number of New Biotechnologies Developed • 07IND03UH – In progress – 3 under development (spat collection for Crassostreacorteziensis, depuration/relay for oysters, depuration dynamics for Anadara sp.) • 07IND04UH – In progress – Depuration/relay for oysters under development • 07HHI05UH – In progress – Depuration dynamics for Anadara sp. under development
Number of New Biotechnologies Developed • 07SFT01UC, 07TAP01UC – In progress – Alternative feeds for freshwater aquaculture species • 07IND01UA – In progress – Dev’t of Snook (Centropomus spp) seed production tech • 07MNE06UA – In progress – Elimination of MT using titanium dioxide • 07SFT05UA – Almost complete – Use of local ingredients substitutes for fishmeal in tilapia and pacu diets in Guyana
Number of Institutions with Access to Technological Practices • 07SFT06PU – 3, Sokoine University of Agriculture, Ministry of Natural Resources & Tourism, Aquaculture Development Division and Farmer organizations. • 07QSD01NC – 4, North Carolina State University, Central Luzon State University, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, and GIFT Foundation International
Number of Institutions with Access to Technological Practices • 07IND03UH, 07HHI03UH, 07HHI04UH, 07HHI05UH – 10, 48-UAS, UAN, ISA, Uni of the Coast, Sinaloa State Committee for Sanitation, Nayarit State Committee for Sanitation, CIDEA/UCA, 39 oyster growing cooperatives, and 2 women’s groups growing oysters • 07BMA02UM – 2, Institute of Agriculture and Animal Science, Rampur, Chitwan, Nepal, and fish farmers in Nepal.
Number of People Trained in Use of Technological Practices • 07QSD01NC – 15 individuals, mainly university and institutional personnel, have been trained in biomarker measurements • 07HHI03UH, 07HHI05UH – 170 (134 in international workshops, 6 in LSU training course, 30 in women’s oyster growing group)
Number of People Trained in Use of Technological Practices • 07BMA02UM – Many farmers have been trained in 1:16 sahar stocking ratio in mixed-sex Nile tilapia pond for improved recruitment control, growth and production • 07SFT04UA – Participants were trained in the utilization of local feed ingredients for tilapia and pacu production in Guyana.
