Focal point
Location
The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations leads international efforts to defeat hunger. Serving both developed and developing countries, FAO acts as a neutral forum where all nations meet as equals to negotiate agreements and debate policy. FAO is also a source of knowledge and information. We help developing countries and countries in transition modernize and improve agriculture, forestry and fisheries practices and ensure good nutrition for all. Since our founding in 1945, we have focused special attention on developing rural areas, home to 70 percent of the world's poor and hungry people.

Displaying 4621 - 4625 of 5074Fish fauna of the Sepik and Ramu River floodplain regions. Summary of information on fish ecology, identification of vacant niches and categories of species suitable for stocking
This document summarises the information available on the habits of fishes in floodplain regions of the Sepik and Ramu River systems, Papua New Guinea, with respect-to project PNG/85/001
Preliminary Report on Trout Stocking
As part of phase one activities undertaken under the Sepik River Fish Stock Enhancement Project an analysis of trout stocking practices in PNG was made. Work undertaken by the project with regard to trout has been restricted for reasons outlined below. This report is, therefore, preliminary in nature and may be modified as more field data become available. Trout is an exotic species in PNG and has been, and still is, stocked by various PNG authorities. Experiences relating to trout are, therefore, highly relevant to the Sepik River Fish Stock Enhancement Project.
