Mission to Iran to assess the needs in coldwater fish culture, 14 August - 2 September 1987

During the recent years, coldwater fisheries in Iran has undergone a rapid development, with numerous hatcheries/farms, both government and private, being constructed. This has not been without difficulties, the major one being shortage of trained manpower. As a result, the coldwater fish production on the farms has been uneven, with some farms showing poor results. The mean coldwater fish production in Iran is still low, with some 1 750 t currently being produced from 60 ha of the licensed 20 f arms. An additional 1 000 t of trout is estimated to be produced on non-licensed farms. The Government of the Islamic Republic of Iran requested FAO to provide a Consultant to assess the current situation and to identify the problems arising from the rapid development of coldwater fisheries in Iran. FAO assigned Dr. Z. L. Krasznai as Consultant in coldwater fish culture for the period 10 August - 2 September 1987, with the following terms of reference:
