Ornamental Aquatics Consultancy Follow-Up
This consultant visit is a continuation of the pro-active Agent assistance to the ornamental aquatics sector. The continuation of this consultancy has resulted in AgEnt contact with approximately 90% of the members of this sector involved in export or commercial production for export. Ninety percent of these contacts have resulted in client files and about 75% of these clients are being considered for at least small scale assistance in 1994. The presence of the AgEnt project and its assistance to this sector has seemingly encouraged many sector members to improve and develop their breeding and holding facilities. This is true of those who have received agent assistance and those who have not. One of the reasons that this sector has developed so well in Singapore has been because of government support. Agent's support during the course of this project will help to accomplish the same thing type of supported development.
