Recently, Nepal Agricultural Research Council has developed a technological package of rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) farming suitable to hill and mountain regions. Aiming for wider dissemination of this technology through strategic planning, a 2-day workshop was held, where about 150 farmer, technician, scientist, NGO, policy maker, entrepreneurs, traders, consumers, media and agricultural administrator actively participated. In the workshop 20 papers were presented including 15 oral and 5 posters. Later a trip to farmer field was organized for enabling direct interaction among various stakeholders of the value chain, and to review analytically on the status of trout farming around Kathmandu-Rasuwa Highway corridor. For further scaling-up of trout farming, the workshop recommended on strengthening and improvement in institutional status, human resources for research and extension, facilities, linkage among stakeholders. The workshop also recommended subsidy to farmers, code of conduct on aquaculture practices, credit schemes, better communication mechanisms, land valuation on the basis of investment and research and development on consistent trout seed production and supply mechanism within the country. Several other recommendations were also suggested for further scaling-up oftrout farming in Nepal. |
