Background and Purpose• Background

Fisheries is the fastest growing and vibrant food production sector in Bangladesh and ranked Fifth in Aquaculture production of the world. This sector account for 4.37% of the Gross Domestic Product (GDP), 2.46% of export earn ings and 60% of the animal protein intake of the coun-try.

Disease has become a primary constraint to aquaculture growth and have a g reat impact on low-income farmers groups.

1994-1996 WSSV collapse the shrimp aquaculture and 1998 EUS.

Losses due to disease is 0.51 million m ton (15% of total production)

To achieve vision 2021, Fisheries production should increase 4.52 million m.ton at the end of 2021 from current 3.42 million m. ton.

Background and Purpose• Background

Addressing health questions with both pro-ac-tive and reactive programs has therefore become an urgent requirement for sustaining the growth of aquaculture and fisheries sector.

So taking a project related to Fish health Man-agement and disease control is justified and de-mand driven.

Background and Purpose

• Purpose

To develop human resource on Fish health management and monitoring

To evaluate Fish health in the aquaculture system following Histopatholog-ical technique

To develop a prompt fish health evaluation and disease management protocol

Enhance farmers knowledge about sound water quality management

Ultimate objective is to minimize losses due to disease, increase fish pro-duction and improve livelihood of the farmers

Current Status and Issues

Fisheries sector account for 4.37% of the GDP, 2.46% of export earn ings and 60% of the animal protein intake of the country. Bangladesh ranked fifth in Aquaculture production of the world. 11%( 18 M) of the total population ngaged fisheries sector.

Vision-2021(3.5 -4.5 m.m.ton)Five Year Plan. MDG & SDG

Fish disease is a common problem in aquaculture production sys-tem. But, there is no existing monitoring and surveillance system in Bangladesh. Even there is no established disease control protocol.

Farm operators should be well equipped to prevent and handle dis-eases outbreak.

So disease control and monitoring is a big issue for aquaculture production and sustainability of the sector

• Current Status and Issues

Current Status and Issues – Gap Analysis Proposed Overall Goals (Objectives)

Proposed Purpose

Evaluate Fish health in the aquaculture system

Develop human resource on Fish health management and monitoring

Develop disease management protocol

Minimize losses due to disease, increase fishproduction and improve livelihood of thefarmers

To Be

As Is

Establish monitoring and surveillance system

Establish disease control protocol

Maintenance of proper record and database

No monitoring and surveillance system

No established disease control protocol.

No data on loss due to disease

Increase disease outbreak with culture intensification

Human resource development

Increased production and in-come

Mortality and reduced produc-tion → Can be minimized by establish-ing disease control protocol

Lack of technical know how → Can be developed by demon-stration and training
