Also with a marine hatchery designed for shrimp - how is the grow-out farm exactly? ....and the process/packing/export plant. Still standing? Guinee may have complied on IUU for EU allowing them to export/import to EU but there are no homologized/ approved EU export facilities....and that may never happen under current setup. Shame inspection and origin of product cannot be done on EU borders.

I wish to inform you that the Department of Aquaculture and Fisheries Management, University of Ibadan has excellent facilities for training at B.Sc, M.Sc and Ph.D in all aspect of aquaculture and fisheries. I am the Dean of the faculty and from that department also. We have students from francophone countries currently undertaking their M.Sc degrees in various aspect of aquaculture. The office of International programes of the University of Ibadan with the postgraduate School organises special class for English proficiency for francophone students which enable them to integrate well. Our next batch from Benin Republic will resume in 05 October 2017. Please let me have detail information and I will link you up with the Dean of Postgraduate school. Thank you. Bamidele O.

Will, maybe we can skype at a later stage. At the moment, we try to identify possible opportunities for Master programs in aquaculture. Especially for French speaking candidates. Most of our applicants do not have a good enough knowledge of the English language, which I suppose is necessary in order to carry out these studies in a successful way at Stirling or other anglophone universities. Best regards, Joris Chers collègues, Je vous remercie tous pour vos réactions. Présentement, nous essayons d'identifier des opportunités de programmes pour Master en aquaculture. En particulier pour des candidats francophones. La plupart de nos candidats ne maîtrisent pas bien l'anglais qui est à mon opinion un facteur contraignant pour réussir à Sterling ou à d'autres universités anglophones. Cordialement, Joris Dear Mr. Lazard, Thank you for your reply. I think that we are on the same wavelength about Guinea's potential for fresh water fish culture and for which the National Directorate of Fish Culture has designed its development strategy. But the question now is how to exploit the seemingly favorable conditions of the huge continental shelf. The water is warm and suitable for fish growth all year round, the sea is generally calm and Guinean coastal waters are renowned for their high biological productivity. There even is a large fully equipped shrimp hatchery on one of the islands in front of Conakry. In rather good shape, but on standby. Nowadays there is no more shrimp farming in Guinea, so maybe a good alternative would be to (partly) reconvert the site and produce seed of alternative species. Looking at global statistics, I see that marine aquaculture is developing very fast in the world these days. I'm wondering what is missing in Guinea to make part of this trend line? Coming back to the tilapia issue, can you also tell we what are its limiting factors for sea farming?
