  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Aquaculture as a Vehicle for Socio-Economic Development in Namibia Author: Elago, Panduleni Throughout the world the landings of capture fisheries are declining and this is not because the fishing nations are managing their resources better but because of the non-availability of the fish species. The reduction in capture fisheries is a wakeup call for the nations to undertake Aquaculture development. Though Namibia is one of the driest countries in the world, aquaculture development is a necessity if fish is to remain part of our menu. The goal of aquaculture development in Namibia is to develop a sustainable industry aiming to promote food security and poverty reduction. Since the introduction of fish farming in 2003, the Government has been engaged in creating a conducive environment for the small and medium fish farmers. This paper focuses on the responses of small and medium farmers towards the government’s effort, for promoting Aquaculture as a vehicle for Socio-Economic Development in Namibia.

  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Improving the Efficiency of Timber Supply While Saving the Fish: The Umpqua Land Exchange Project Author: Sessions, John Year: 2001 Western land development initiatives by the federal government led to a fragmented ownership in much of western Oregon. A project to examine the feasibility of voluntary land exchanges between public and private owners to increase ecological health of fish and other species in Umpqua Basin while maintaining timber supply has been initiated. A landscape model has been developed to quantitatively link geomorphic and management related variables to species habitat suitability so that solutions can be systematically assessed. A pilot study to develop and test the methodology has been completed and data compilation is in the final stages for the first 675,000 acre (2700 sq. km) analysis unit.
