Scope
Since the organisation of the LARVI'91 Fish & Crustacean Larviculture
Symposium in August 1991, much progress has been made in various disciplines of
larviculture research. The industrial production of fish fry, shrimp postlarvae
and mollusc seed has further expanded and is presently valued at several hundred
million US dollars annually. The cost effectiveness of the hatcheries has improved,
several new species are under consideration for industrial application, etc.
The aim of LARVI '95 is to bring researchers and professionals together to evaluate
recent progress, identify problem areas and stimulate future cooperation in research
and industrial production of freshwater as well as marine fish and shellfish larvae.
In view of the positive reactions to LARVI'91 the Symposium location and format
have been maintained for LARVI'95.
