FOREWORD
Traditional aquaculture has been practised by fish farmers of
Southeast Asia for centuries. In the last 15 years or so, however, the
introduction and development of modern and innovative aquaculture
technologies have transformed this age-old occupation into a major in-
dustry that has increased the national fish production, produced much-
needed export earnings, and generated employment and business oppor-
tunities.
Acknowledged worldwide is the role of the Southeast Asian Fish-
eries Development Center (SEAFDEC) in promoting the growth of
aquaculture in the region. SEAFDEC performs this role through its
Aquaculture Department (AQD) which it established in 1973 in the
Philippines with the mandate to undertake research and provide train-
ing for aquaculture manpower.
A great deal of aquaculture progress and success has been ac-
complished since the birth of SEAFDEC and AQD 20 and 15 years ago,
respectively. But these must be assessed in the light of present and
future needs and challenges. This was the rationale for the regional
Seminar on Aquaculture Development in Southeast Asia (ADSEA '87)
held in Iloilo City, Philippines, on 8-12 September 1987. Also con-
vened to commemorate the 20th foundation anniversary of SEAFDEC,
the conference was attended by senior aquaculturists from Japan,
Thailand, Singapore, Malaysia, and the Philippines, together with re-
presentatives of various international organizations, Philippine govern-
ment agencies, academic institutions, and the private sector, including
fishfarmers' associations.
The seminar reexamined the existing aquaculture technologies in
Southeast Asia, evaluated the contribution of AQD to these technolo-
gies, and identified future directions for aquaculture in the region
which include areas in research and training where closer collaboration
between AQD and SEAFDEC Member Countries should be strength-
ened.
This Proceedings is a comprehensive account of the seminar. It
contains the papers read and discussed at the sessions, and the recom-
mendations reached and formulated.
2 AQUACULTURE DEVELOPMENT IN SOUTHEAST ASIA
It is our hope that through this publication AQD is again able to
effectively disseminate valuable information for the benefit of aquacul-
turists, researchers, planners and decision-makers, resource managers,
and the general public as envisioned by the founders of SEAFDEC.
