Côte d’Ivoire needs to step up its domestic tilapia production in line with domestic demand, according to a recent interview with Fougnigué Traoré, FISH4ACP national professional officer in Côte d’Ivoire, following the publication of a new report.
Benjamin Orishaba, a 28-year-old Ugandan, is currently managing three tilapia hatcheries for a government fish farming project in Cote D’Ivoire and also runs his own aquaculture consultancy company.
Jean Yves Kouamé, founder of IDISPRO, explains how he aims to establish a modern, traceable and digitised value chain for the aquaculture sector in the Ivory Coast, in a bid to improve the country’s food security and job opportunities.
