Smallholder fish farming contribute to improved nutrition, incomes and livelihoods of rural
communities. Despite the potential, aquaculture in most rural areas is based on extensive
production systems characterized by low availability in inputs. In Nyaguta, farmers are involved
in agricultural production activities, including fish farming. However, most farmers do not...

The relationship between annual growth in the catches of fishing nations and the quality of the institutions of those nations is analyzed. Catch volumes are used as a proxy for development, since economic performance indicators based on a common set of definitions do not exist. 49 major fishing nations were...

The purpose of this article is to report the results of a statistical investigation of links in the fish supply chain in Uganda. We are particularly interested in the extent of ex-vessel prices impacting links downstream in the fish supply chain. We test for vertical and horizontal co-integration for five...

A sine-qua-non for eradicating protein malnutrition in Nigeria is increased ingestion of high-value proteins found in various fish forms. This study attempted to give empirical backing or refutation to the assertion that dried fish is consumed more than fresh fish in Nigeria. Data used were gathered in 90 rural and...
