‘Blue revolution,’ fish farming in Bangladesh ponds (Prothom Alo)

October 15, 2019


Prothom Alo (Bangladesh) published an article that looked at “The Blue Revolution”—increased fish production (six-fold in the last 34 years)–in the country. According to a soon-to-be released IFPRI book, 56 percent of the fish produced in Bangladesh come from ponds. However, unregulated chemical treatments for the ponds and questionable factory-made fish feed present risks. Republished in The Daily Mirror (Bangladesh)
