Technical Assistance and Investment Framework for Aquaculture in Ghana. Project outlines
The review of the dug-outs present in Northern Ghana indicates that a policy aiming to develop the fisheries in seasonal, runoff fed dug-outs would seem to have a chance of success. However, although the analysis has not dwelt on the issue of size, it should be apparent that many of the associated public costs (e.g. identification, classification, training of local fishery supervisors, introduction of improved fishing techniques) are not related to the size of the dug-out but are fixed according to the number of dug-outs to be stocked. Thus, the stocking policy would have to establish a lowest (maximum) size for dug-outs to be integrated in the scheme. It seems evident that isolated dug-outs less than two hectares in size should not be included in an initial development programme.
