Technical bookFertilizer use by crop in the Democratic People's Republic of Korea 2003
Also available in:
No results found.In recent years, agricultural production in the Democratic People's Republic of Korea has fallen sharply. There is little arable land and increased production must come from higher yields, which require an adequate supply of production inputs such as fertilizers. All inputs are in short supply and there is a lack of items such as spare parts for machinery and irrigation pumps. Compounded by a series of droughts, this situation has resulted in serious food shortages. Large-scale humanitarian inte rventions have been required. In order to increase agricultural production, a "double cropping programme" has been developed, with the support of FAO and aid agencies, in order to permit the harvesting of an extra crop. This report presents the results of the programme to date. -

No results found.Marine finfish netcage culture is practiced throughout the Asian region, however some countries have not yet fully mastered the technique. In some countries there are some technological gaps in the existing practices. Seafarming of marine fish species in increasing in importance due to several factors which include the high market demand and the availability of a vast area that can be exploited. Consequently the interest in marine finfish culture is rapidly growing throughout the region. In re cognition of the need of countries to develop their marine finfish netcage culture industries, a regional marine finfish netcage training course was organized in Singapore. The course, held in Singapore on 4–24 September 1988, was sponsored by the FAO/UNDP Regional Seafarming Development and Demonstration Project (RAS/86/024) and organized by the Primary Production Department. Twenty-five participants were trained from eight countries in the region, namely China, DPRK, Indonesia, ROK, Malaysia , Philippines, Singapore and Thailand. Eleven of the participants were sponsored by the Seafarming Project; nine by the ASEAN Regional Small-Scale Fisheries Development Project (RAS/84/014); one by the Indonesian Seafarming Development Project (INS/81/008); and four from the private sector in Singapore. The main objective of this course was to teach the participants techniques for successful netcage construction and culture of marine finfish species. The lecture topics and laboratories were on the principles and construction of netcages, operation and maintenance of netcages, principles of site selection, species selection, seed production and supply, fish nutrition, feeds, fish diseases and sanitation.
