Synopsis (short abstract) Progress in Nutrition and Diet Development research at FARS is progressing slowly due to lack of essential equipment and research facilities. The analytical laboratory has no fume hood and no spectrophotometer, and electrical and water supplies plus adequate drainage. Some modern equipment and supplies have been ordered and delivered but analysis must still be done as guest workers at BAU. Research morale is affected and Dr. Bhuiyan's absence as CSO-BFRS means no senior experienced SSO is presen t to guide and supervize the young SO's on the staff of FARS. The major effort of FARS has been focused upon seedstock generation and improved polyculture techniques for aquaculture--programmes which have been very successful and have tended to emphasize in this research station upon known or better techniques rather than efforts to expand and improve research facilities, equipment and personnel of underdeveloped programmes of the station. More emphasis must be placed upon finishing the NDD la boratories, the diet testing facility and the experimental feed mill equipment for diet manufacturing and diet testing.
