| Résumé: | Starting from a small base, aquaculture production in Africa registered annual growth
rates equal to or above those in other regions. This expansion was due to signifi cant
increases in a few African countries. Increasing demand coupled with rapidly dwindling
catches from capture fi sheries, the implementation of novel participatory approaches to
technology development and transfer, and the emergence of a few successful large-scale
tilapia culture operations directed at the export market offer opportunities for further
expansion in both the small-scale and large-scale commercial sectors. Existing
biotechnical, economic and institutional challenges, which include lack of national
policies to guide aquaculture development, unfriendly investment policies, the absence
of linkages between farmers, research/technology development and extension, and
unfavorable investment climates, are currently being addressed in a number of African
countries. Long-term economic sustainability of African aquaculture will depend on the
development and implementation of national policies that ensure the social and
environmental sustainability of the industry. |
