Supporting the Development of Aquaculture Industry
in Landlocked Mongolia

Background and Key Components

In response to heightened food insecurity—confirmed by 2022 WHO statistics—the diversification of Mongolia’s agriculture, notably in aquaculture, has become crucial. The Mongolian Aquaculture Association has requested support for aquaculture development via triangular collaborations.

The programme aspires to develop contents that either can be replicated in a demonstration farm or integrated into a knowledge hub for sustainable development of the Mongolian Aquaculture Industry.
