Theme: “Sustainable Aquaculture: Nutritional Security and Exports”
The International Institute of Knowledge Management takes the pleasure to invite you to the 6th International Conference on FISHERIES AND AQUACULTURE 2019 – (ICFA 2019) which will be held from 22nd – 23rd August 2019 in Bangkok, Thailand. ICFA 2019 is foreseeing members from Aquaculture researchers, Marine Biologists, Researchers, Academicians, Industry experts, Students, Government Officials over the world.
ICFA 2019 gives an exciting opportunity to meet with like-minded people and industry peers. This Conference will bring together people from all different geographical areas to learn, discuss and explore wisdom in the direction of aquaculture.
CALL FOR PAPERS
The fisheries and aquaculture sector is expected to (i) bridge the gap between supply and demand of protein needs of ever-growing world population and (ii) increase its export contribution. The fact that growing economies are exporting high value seafood in part to achieve the broader goal of ending poverty, while achieving the food security goal by retaining and importing lower value seafood, has become an overarching trend. Currently, the sector is facing certain challenges, including its actual and perceived sustainability, disease out-breaks, and fluctuating global prices in changing macro-economic scenario, competition from other resource users and global trade wars. Therefore, we need to think forward by adopting new technologies, understanding the role of research and development, and extending and/or disseminating latest research to primary producers.
we invite you to submit an abstract in the range of the following tracks but not limited to:
- Aquaculture development
- Aquaculture engineering
- Feeding and nutrition in Aquaculture
- Aquatic resources and environmental management
- Aquaculture and Fisheries economics
- Biotechnology and genetics in Aquaculture
- Aquatic health management and diseases
