          MESSAGE FROM EDITOR

          FAO has released its annual report on The State of World Fisheries and Aquaculture 2024 which gives details of the sector as of 2022. Just to give an idea where Asia stands with respect to production – 70% of global aquatic animal production comes from Asia, while aquaculture in Asia contributes over 88% to global aquaculture production indicating the importance of the region not only to global fish production, but also its contribution to global food, nutrition and livelihood security.

          Asian Fisheries Society through its branches and sections and the research and development organisations in the region have been contributing immensely to these developments. The report further indicates that women constitute 24% of the workforce in the sector and over 62% in post-harvest. Society’s Gender in Aquaculture and Fisheries section has been very active in addressing the gender issues and it has a major role to play in the future. Those interested can download the full FAO report from: https://openknowledge.fao.org/server/api/core/bitstreams/53a2c5a2-f531-480c-96c0-706a43480571/content.

          This newsletter gives summary of various activities undertaken by the AFS branches and sections in the last six months. Members are once again encouraged to contribute to the Newsletter the outputs from their research, conferences, training programs held, etc.
