The FAO Fisheries and Aquaculture Department and FAO’s Regional Office for Asia and the Pacific jointly sponsored and implemented a regional training workshop to support scaling up of innovative integrated agro-aquaculture (IAA) for Blue Growth in selected countries in the Asia-Pacific region. As an FAO Reference Centre for Aquaculture and Inland Fisheries Research and Training, and as the technical backstopping agency for the successful introduction of integrated rice-fish culture practices in Hani terraced rice fields, the Freshwater Fisheries Research Centre (FFRC) of the Chinese Academy of Fishery Sciences (CAFS) partnered with FAO in the organization of the training workshop. The workshop worked to share IAA models, experiences and lessons in IAA development, for the purpose of extension and improvement of rice-fish systems and similar IAA models, with low input and high output.
