| Résumé : |
Aquaculture has a long history; the first traces of men farming fish date back several centuries to China, when a common practice was to raise carp in rice paddies as a complement to agriculture. Over the past decade, research into fish biology and development of farming techniques has provided the tools for the farming on a commercial basis of high-value species under more or less controllable conditions. Against the background of a trend towards stagnating catches from capture fisheries and a continuing sustained demand for high value fish species, fish farming has secured a niche in the market for fish, with considerable further potential for development.
With a view to gaining more knowledge about the present state of aquaculture, the OECD fisheries committee, in conjunction with its 62nd session in June 1988, held an extended meeting on aquaculture. This report contains a series of papers presented to this meeting.
The committee for fisheries' extended meeting on aquaculture was divided into four main sessions dealing respectively with technical issues, marketing issues, administration issues and economics; this publication follows the same outline. Another publication entitled "aquaculture:
Developing a new industry", reviews current status of production in member countries and addresses the prospects for development of aquaculture.
At its 62nd session of 20 to 22 june, 1988, the committee for fisheries reviewed those papers and recommended that the secretary general derestricted them, under his responsibility. Subsequently he decided to publish them. |
