Revive abandoned hatcheries to boost Capiz aquaculture, says expert
Excerpt
To boost the local aquaculture industry, the chief of an international aquaculture research center said abandoned and underutilized hatcheries in the province should be rehabilitated to produce much-needed crablets and fish fry. Dan Baliao, chief of the Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center’s Aquaculture Department (SEAFDEC/AQD), said this during a dialogue with local fish farmers who aired that there were not enough suppliers of crablets that they seed into their fishponds. “The problem here in Capiz is that our crablets come from Bicol, Sarangani, and Cagayan Valley. How about us here in Capiz?” asked Ma. Cristina Dyna Honrado, vice-chair of the Capiz Aquaculture Producers Cooperative.
