Lowland Fish Culture - AIP
Accelerated Impact Program (AIP) pilot project to introduce fish culture to the Senegal River Valley by establishing a small farmer extension program. The project, to be implemented by the Service of Waters and Forests with Peace Corps assistance, will build an all-purpose fish culture station near Richard Toll to provide fingerlings (of Tilapia Nilotica), a research capability, a site for training and demonstration, and food fish for the people of Richard Toll. Extensionists will introduce fish farming in five high-potential irrigated perimeters controlled by the Societe d'Amenagement et d'Exploitation des Terres du Delta (SAED).
