Planned activity Expected
outcome/output Achievements
Activity 1. Establishment of environment-friendly, responsible aquaculture technology Sub-activity 1.1 Use of plant-
based protein sources in tilapia feeds for improved production traits
To produce tilapia with improved production traits using agricultural wastes and by- products as feed ingredients
A survey of major crop industries revealed high amount of wastes were generated after processing. The proximate composition of agricultural by-products (ABPs) had shown either as protein or carbohydrate sources in feed formulation. Pesticide residue levels were below the limit of quantification or lower than the maximum residue limits adopted by FAO Codex Alimentarius. However, ABPs were associated with high levels of lignin, phenols and low to moderate levels of tannin. Growth performance of fish fed diets with untreated citrus pulp, okara meal and pineapple peel did not differ from those fed the control diet.
Enrichment studies by ensiling or solid state fermentation have been shown to improve their crude protein levels with nutrient addition.
Sub-activity 1.2 Responsible aquaculture through
aquasilviculture
To determine the time required for a mangrove habitat to remove nutrients (i.e. N, P) from shrimp farm effluents.
Pond effluents from shrimp culture (DOC 75) were drained into habitats with and without mangroves.
Nutrients level were measured regularly. Ammonia, phosphate, chlorophyll a and total suspended solids were fluctuating but generally lower in water drained into habitat with mangroves compared to those without mangrove. Ammonia was not detected in habitat with mangrove 3 days after draining; phosphate after 5 days.
Ammonia and phosphate of water drained into environment without mangrove remained high 14 days after draining.
Activity 2. Promotion of community-based production and resource enhancement of high-value aquatic resources
Sub-activity 2.1 Community- based integrated production of abalone Haliotis asinina and sea cucumber Holothuria scabra through culture, sea ranching and stock enhancement
Improving fisheries governance and strategies for managing enhanced abalone and sandfish stocks and health of its habitat.
The accomplishments of the project in 2017 include: 1) participated in Sustainable Seafood Week through lectures and exhibits of the Community-Based Resource Enhancement (CBRE) in January &
February; 2) released 600 hatchery-reared abalone juveniles in CBRE release site in replicate site in Molocaboc Diut on 22 June to address increasing demand from buyers since fisherfolks gained market access as live abalones were supplied to hotels and other buyers in Manila aside from local buyers in the Visayas; 3) nursed a cumulative total of 84,000 sandfish early juveniles and those released in sea ranch site are of marketable size >300g; 4) obtained access to land in Molocaboc Dacu in 21 June for the solar–
powered abalone hatchery as the land owner in Molocaboc Dacu agreed to sell 1,000 m2 portion of land to the local government of Sagay City for this purpose; and 5) conducted an exploratory visit for CBRE in Camarines Sur on 30 May.
Sub-activity 2.2 Promotion of resource enhancement of seahorses
To determine the appropriate time of release; to
determine growth and survival of the released seahorses;
and to promote involvement of the
Due to uncertain availability of juvenile seahorses from the hatchery, there is a need to conduct trials on the establishment of nursery rearing condition of seahorses in Molocaboc Island using available food from the sampling site. Fishermen organization members will be trained on the nursery rearing of newborn seahorses using the available live feed collected from the sampling site in Molocaboc Island. Information

education communication (IEC) activities will be conducted to promote resource conservation and protection of seahorses by giving lectures to school children, giving out posters and interviews with the local community.
Activity 3 Technology extension and demonstration Sub-activity 3.1 Marine fish
hatchery training program To train participants to operate a fish hatchery by providing them with technical knowledge and skills on spawning and larval rearing of marine fishes.
The International Training Course on Marine Fish Hatchery was conducted at Tigbauan Main Station from June 20 – July 26, 2017.
There were seven (7) participants. The two (2) participants (1 from Myanmar and 1 from Viet Nam) awarded GOJ-TF Training Fellowship Grants, submitted narrative reports.
Sub-activity 3.2 Rural
aquaculture program Enhance participants’
knowledge and skills on freshwater aquaculture technologies from broodstock development to seed production, nursery and grow- out phase.
A 10-day training course on “Community-Based Freshwater Aquaculture (CBFWA) for Remote Areas of Southeast Asia” will be conducted from November 21- 30, 2017 in Binangonan Freshwater Station, Binangonan, Rizal.
Letters of invitation for prospective participants from SEAFDEC member countries were already sent out to their respective Country and National Coordinators.
Only Myanmar has sent 1 nominee to date.
Preparations for the training are currently being done.

Genetic connectivity sub-study should be conducted to validate that untagged abalones are off-springs of the hatchery-reared juveniles released periodically in 2011 up to 2015.
Activity 2.2. Supply of seahorse juveniles from the hatchery is affected by limited availability of live feed for newborn seahorses.

Project id: 201505001 Program Categories: Project under the ASEAN-SEAFDEC ASSP/FCG Mechanism
Project Title: Enhancement of Sustainability of Catadromous Eel Resources in Southeast Asia
Program Thrust: I Total Duration: 2015-2019
Lead Department: IFRDMD Lead Country: Indonesia
Donor/Sponsor: JTF-6 Total Donor Budget: USD 190,000
Project Partner: None Budget for 2018: USD 80,940
Project Leader: Ms. Ni Komang Suryati Involved Country: SEAFDEC Member Countries
PART I: OVERALL PROJECT DESCRIPTION 1. Brief Project Description
This project is aimed at enhancing the sustainability of catadromous eel resources in Southeast Asia (hereinafter it is to be called “the region”). There are three main activities on the project. The first one is aimed at clear understanding on current situation of resources, fisheries and utilization of catadromous eels in the region. The second one is aimed at improving data collection and statistics of catadromous eel catch in ASEAN Member States (hereinafter referred to as “AMS”). The third one is aimed at enhancing knowledge and capacity in AMS for the conservation, management and sustainable utilization of catadromous eel resources.
In particular, lack of data and statistics on tropical eel species may bring negative impact to the fisheries sectors. Various kind of information about the tropical eels should be collected through a variety of sources, including the fishing activities (catch statistics), biological surveys and from the beneficiaries (traders, consumers and so on).
2. Background and Justification
With the rapid decline of temperate eels, the market value of tropical eels rises in recent years. Glass eel (juvenile of eel) capture fisheries in tropical zone increase dramatically. In order to avoid the over exploitation on glass eel, the Indonesian government issued the regulation to prohibit export of eel seeds less than 150 g from Indonesia’s territory. The similar policies to prohibit export of eel seeds are enforced in some other countries. Conservation and management policy issues on tropical eel resources for their sustainability become more important not only in Indonesia but also in the region. Therefore, the region needs a policy to balance between utilization and sustainability of tropical eel resources. At the same time, we should consider that we have just quite limited knowledge on tropical eel species in this region yet.
The main objectives of this project are to find out the current status of eel fisheries, to develop the data collection methods and statistical data on fisheries production, and to promote the management plans for conservation and sustainable use of tropical eel resources. The Goals of the project are construction of guidelines on conservation, management and sustainable utilization of catadromous eel resources in the region.
