Excerpt
Newly-established aquaculture facilities at SEAFDEC/AQD were officially inaugurated in a ceremony held last Dec. 9, 2021 at its Tigbauan Main Station in Iloilo. Top executives of the Philippine government, headed by Department of Agriculture (DA) Secretary Dr. William Dar, toured the facilities with Chief Dan Baliao and the members of the SEAFDEC/AQD Executive Committee. Multi-species hatcheries and broodstock tanks were established to intensify the research center’s demonstration and techno-transfer program as well as help address the shortage of aquaculture seeds in the Philippines.
