  1. AQUACULTURE PROJECTFunded by USAID Presented in AAS Hub Scoping at Khulna

  2. Project Objectives • Dissemination of improved quality fish and shrimp seed • Improving the nutrition and income status of farm households • Increasing investment, employment and fish/shrimp production through commercial aquaculture • Policy and regulatory reform and institutional capacity building to support sustainable aquaculture growth

  3. Working in 20 Districts with 4 hubsKHULNAJESSOREBARISALFARIDPUR

  4. COMPONENTS • Fish and Shrimp Seed • Household Aquaculture • Commercial Aquaculture • Institutions and Policies

  5. PHASE 1 Phase 1 Strategy: • Lay foundation for future commercial and household aquaculture by focusing on fish and shrimp seed in first 18 months to March 2013 • Rapid impacts through collaboration with existing USAID programs (MYAPs, IPAC, CSISA), partner NGOs and others

  6. PHASE 2 Phase 2 Strategy: • Concentrate on household and commercial aquaculture, supported by implementation of new GoB policies to September 2016. • Management of most operations by nationalpublic and private institutions after three years

  7. OVERALL TARGETS

  8. PARTNERSHIPS • National institutions: • DoF – • Provide use of DOF hatchery/brood banks, PCR lab; import improved lines from abroad • WFC provide support for implementation of Hatchery & Feed Laws (discussions with FAO) • BFRI – • Provide use of farms for brood development, on- station research, PCR labs for testing shrimp PL

  9. PARTNERSHIPS • MYAPs: Expand SAVE activities to reach 12,000 households; Expand CARE activities in year 2 • Include homestead aquaculture in IPAC: livelihoods programsfor8,000 households in areas adjacent to the Sunderbans • Partnership with 85 private depots to reach 20,000 shrimp farmers • Assist 5,000 commercial carp farmers (2000 through by Nobo-Jibon) • Co-ordinate with CSISA to leverage greater impacts

  10. Summary of major achievements to date • MOAs/agreements signed: 40 carp hatcheries; 14 shrimp hatcheries; 38 depots; 1 INGO (Save the Children); 2 national NGOs (CODEC & Speedtrust); IPAC, BCCP • Client selection: 45,000 farmers selected (20,000 shrimp; 20,000 homestead pond; 5000 commercial fish) • Brood distribution: 13,000 kg to 40 carp hatcheries out of 14,000 kg • Staff recruitment: WFC – 45; Nobo-Jibon partners - 72; IPAC partners 45; depot staff 85, hatchery-18

  11. Summary of major achievements to date • Individuals trained: 80 hatchery technicians (brood & hatchery management); 117 partner staff (basic aquaculture); 85 depot staff (shrimp aquaculture) • Artificial Insemination: Introduction of milt transfers- Provision of high quality Common Carp milt to a number of private sector hatcheries has begun. • National market price database: Developed with CSISA

  12. 1: DEVELOPMENT AND DISSEMINATION OF IMPROVED FISH & SHRIMP SEED • Fastest impacts is through improvements in seed therefore ≈ 60-70% of investment in Phase 1 • Main partners GOB: DOF, BFRI; working with CIFA/ICAR (India) • Disseminate improved quality and genetically improved lines of tilapia, carps (rohu and catla), shrimp/prawns
