AQD expects to increase its milkfish hatchery production in 2-3 years with the acquisition and transport of more than 100 milkfish broodstock on 2 April 2012.

Two AQD researchers bagged the 2011 Elvira Tan Award for best paper in inland fisheries, and the best researcher & young scientist award; both are given by DOST. SEE PRESENTATION ON THE AWARD-WINNING PAPER

Fishfarmers can protect their stocks from disease outbreaks by practicing good aquaculture management. This was the message of the International workshop on fish health management held 1-2 March 2012 in Iloilo City, Philippines.

On 6 March, SEAFDEC/AQD conducted a workshop on Small-scale aquaculture and livelihood ventures in Kalibo, Aklan, Philippines. Around 40 participants from the academe, LGU, and private sector attended the workshop

AQD’s projects under the Government of Japan Trust Fund (GOJ-TF) were evaluated during the Annual progress meeting held 8-9 February in Tigbauan, Iloilo.

AQD is in need of a technical assistant for its Fish Health Section in Tigbauan, Iloilo.
