Abstract |
- Following a ban to export seafood products to EU in 2004, the Philippines
started a very active process of compliancy with European Food Law,
which achievement was successful since the country has been found to be
capable of ensuring the required level of food safety in 2006, after an
inspection by the European Food and Veterinary Office.
In 2007, the CIRAD, in partnership with the Bureau of Fisheries and
Aquatic Resources (Philippines), the University of Stirling (UK) and the
Centre de Sociologie des Organisations (CNRS-Science Po Paris) launched
a research program in order to better understand the process and its
implications for sustainable development. Unlike other countries,
innovation in Philippine aquaculture is generally a bottom-up led process.
However, during the process of compliance with EU food law, innovation
has clearly been a top-down process that helped the country to catch up at
all levels, from the government food safety enforcement units up to
industry.
The process can now be overviewed as having been beneficial to the
country, because the exclusion of small operators did not lead to any
income reduction in practice. In the case of the Philippines, the study
showed that the main strength of the country has been to demonstrate its
capacity to easily and efficiently shift from one development paradigm to
another. Without this temporary change, the Philippines wouldnt have been
in the condition to ensure the dramatic but sustainable changes in its
aquaculture chain that it achieved.
