Résumé

This National Aquaculture Strategy is a nationwide sectoral document aiming at achieving increased domestic fish production from all sources on a sustainable and renewable basis to the level of self–sufficiency and fish export in the medium to long term. The Strategy includes some cross-sectoral components concerning fish farms and live fish transport and handling. To achieve the overall goal, 8 main strategic objectives are indicated, as follows (i) massively accelerate fisheries and aquaculture production through private sector led investment in collaboration with the public sector and by all operators in the fisheries sub-sector; (ii) improve the socio-economic life in fishing communities by facilitating access to fishing inputs, equipment, facilities and credit; (iii) pursue a deliberate policy of annual import reduction by 25% of fish and fishery products over a period of 5 years; (iv) develop and implement a national fish disease diagnosis, control and prevention network; (v) support and strengthen fisheries related organisations for optimal contribution to fisheries research and development; (vi) achieve an effective national safety and quality assurance system that can protect consumers’ health and enhance foreign exchange earnings through export of fish and fishery products; (vii) emphasize value addition in fish processing; and (viii) develop efficient local and international marketing of fish and fishery products.
