Côte d’Ivoire – The means to raise tilapia

“Today, we need new practices and the means to use them,” says Laciné Diarassouba, a small-scale tilapia farmer in Côte d’Ivoire. “This is not about finance. The first thing is practice. To teach someone how to do it.” Tilapia is the main fish species farmed in Côte d'Ivoire. FISH4ACP aims to help increase productivity to boost the domestic supply of safe and affordable animal protein, while providing jobs and income generating opportunities to the rural population.
