The Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center Aquaculture Department (SEAFDEC AQD) and the Australian Center for International Agricultural Research (ACIAR) will co-sponsor a training course on mud crab (alimango) seed production from Aug 14 to Sept. 13. The month-long course will be conducted at the SEAFDEC AQD complex in Tigbauan, Iloilo. It aims to provide marginal fish farmers, hatchery operators and technicians, as well as government extension workers, fisheries teachers, and aquaculturists technical knowledge and skills in crab seed production, with emphasis on Scylla serrata.
