Enabling grey literature discovery to benefit aquatic science, fisheries and aquaculture – 25 September 2019, Terengganu, Malaysia
Grey literature, which includes policy reports, technical guidelines and dissertations and theses, is produced by many actors within aquatic sciences, fisheries and aquaculture. Many hours of research go into producing these documents, often with the purpose of solving particular environmental, species or socio-economic problems. Whilst the nature of the problem tackled by much grey literature is focused on a specific problem in a specific area, its lessons can often be applied to similar problems or environments around the world. What prevents this taking place is that grey literature can be hard to access – due to the way it is produced and stored, grey literature can often be stored offline, or on institutional websites where it is difficult to access using internet search engines or databases.
Success Stories in Asian Aquaculture
This book examines how the adaptability and innovation of small-scale aquaculture farmers have been crucial to success in the region. It describes the relationship between aquaculture development in Asia to natural systems, social conditions and economics.
Integrated Irrigation and Aquaculture in West Africa
This publication contains background documents and papers presented at a workshop on integrated irrigation aquaculture (IIA), held in Mali in November 2003, as well as the findings of FAO expert missions on IIA in the West Africa region. The rationale for IIA development lies in its potential to increase productivity of scarce freshwater resources and to reduce pressure on natural resources, issues of particular important in the drought-prone countries of West Africa.

Towards Integrated Assessment and Advice in Small-scale Fisheries
The document presents the principles and processes for integrated assessment and advice in small-scale fisheries. The first chapter discusses failures of conventional assessment and management approaches. Chapter 2 presents the conceptual origins and principles of integrated assessment of small-scale fisheries. The framework is then introduced and places the assessment within the broader planning and management cycle. The final chapter discusses the implementation of the IAA framework.--Publisher's description.
Value chain transformation: Taking stock of WorldFish research on value chains and markets
The goal of WorldFish’s research on markets and value chains is to increase the benefits to resource-poor people from fisheries and aquaculture value chains by researching (1) key barriers to resource-poor men, women and other marginalized groups gaining greater benefits from participation in value chains, including barriers related to the availability, affordability and quality of nutrient-rich fish for resource-poor consumers; (2) interventions to overcome those barriers; and (3) mechanisms that are most effective for scaling up of value chain interventions. This paper aims to promote and document learning across WorldFish’s value chain research efforts in Asia and Africa. It has three main objectives: (1) to take stock of WorldFish’s past and ongoing research on value chains; (2) to draw out commonalities and differences between these projects; and (3) to provide a synthesis of some learning that can guide future work.
