PH needs fisheries dep't, aquaculture experts say
Excerpt
The government needs to create a Department of Fisheries in order to improve fish production for domestic consumption and for export, leading aquaculture experts said here on Tuesday. Rafael Guerrero, the scientist who developed the sex reversal technology used in culturing all-male tilapia, said the country trailed behind China, Indonesia and other Asian countries in the production of tilapia, bangus (milkfish) and seaweeds. Guerrero, who was honored along with another scientist by the National Integrated Fisheries Technology Development Center here, said the creation of a fisheries department would also enable the country to take care of its waters.
