Mortality rate, exploitation and recruitment in Oreochromis niloticus (Linnaeus) in Nyanza Gulf of Lake Victoria, Kenya
Provedor de dados: 20
Autores: Getabu, A.
An analysis was done on length frequency data to study mortality,     exploitation rate and recruitment in Oreochromis niloticus in Nyanza     Gulf, Lake Victoria. The fishing mortality (F) and natural mortality     (M) were 0.468 y super(-1) and 2.0 y super(-1) respectively. The     exploitation rate was 57.2%. Yield per recruit under the fishing     regime was 250 g. Its predicted value at maximum sustained yield was     530 g, which could be obtained at a fishing mortality of 1.5 y     super(-1). The recommended value was 500 g to be obtained at a fishing     mortality of 1.0 y super(-1). The maximum biomass per recruit (B/R)     was 1132.48 g while the optimum was 1068.38 g. The biomass recruit     under the present fishing regime is 534.19 g which is...

Multigear fishery of Nile perch (Lates niloticus) in the Winam Gulf of Lake Victoria: with special reference to mortality, selection and catch/effort data
Provedor de dados: 20
Autores: Manyala, J.O.; Rabuor, C.O.
A survey of multigear fishery of Nile perch (Lates niloticus) in the     Winam Gulf of Lake Victoria indicates that total mortality coefficient     (Z) determined from longline fishery using hook number 6 was double     that of hook number 7. Total mortality coefficient determined from     gillnets and beachseines were lower than those of hooks. The catch per     unit effort (C/f) measured using different criteria indicated an     increase for all gears in 1990 as compared to 1989 except for     gillnets. A two-fold increase in unit effort (f) increased the C/f for     mosquito seines by only 30%. The typical exponential decay of C/f with     increasing f of exploited stock in equilibrium was lacking in the case     of Nile perch in the Winam Gulf.

Distribution of economic benefits from the fisheries of Lake Victoria
Provedor de dados: 20
Autores: Abila, R.O.; Odongkara, K.O.; Onyango, P.O.
The Lake Victoria fishery contributes immensely to the socio-economic development of the riparian states. The East African Community has designated the lake basin as an ‘economic growth zone’, with the potential to develop into a major economic region. The fisheries are vital in creating employment opportunities, mostly rural-based, thereby helping to reduce rural-urban migration. Fish is also a rich source of animal protein for human consumption and provides raw material (fishmeal) for processing animal feeds. The fish industry contributes to GDP and has continued to be an important source of foreign exchange earned from fish exports. Besides, the fish industry contributes to the national and local government revenues through levying of various taxes,...

Biodiversity and sustainable management of a tropical wetland lake ecosystem: A case study of Lake Kanyaboli, Kenya
Provedor de dados: 20
Autores: Rasowo, J.O.; Abila, R.; Manyala, J.
Lake Kanyaboli and the surrounding Yala swamp wetland has been recognized as an important biodiversity hotspot. Recent population genetic and phylogenetic studies confirm the evolutionary importance of Lake Kanyaboli (Kenya) in preserving the cichlid fish fauna of Lake Victoria. The adjoining Yala swamp harbours the endangered swamp antelope Sitatunga (Tragecephalus spekii) and several papyrus endemic birds. The lake and adjoining swamp play a critical role in the livelihood of the local communities who heavily depend on the wetland resources. Current ongoing large scale land use changes within the swamp threaten the ecological integrity and functioning of this highly dynamic wetland ecosystem. It is therefore imperative that proper management and...

Conseil interminstériel sur la pêche et l'aquaculture
Provedor de dados: 20
La pêche est une composante essentielle du développement économique et social intégré. Elle contribue de manière non négligeable aux objectifs de croissance de l'économie nationale, notamment à la réduction du déficit de la balance des paiements, du chômage ainsi qu'a la satisfaction des besoins alimentaires des populations.

Fishing and poverty levels around Lake Victoria (Kenya)
Provedor de dados: 20
Autores: Abila, R.O.; Omwega, R.N.; Lwenya, C.
Fishing is known to be one of the oldest occupations of mankind and in Lake Victoria (Kenya); it has been largely practiced at artisanal levels. Despite this, poverty amongst the fisher folk remains high. Why the fisher folk remain in perpetual poverty was the key research question for this study. Sampling was conducted on 12 landing beaches between June and August 2004. Data was obtained using survey questionnaires; personal interviews were made using open-ended questions and beach observations. Results from this study indicates that 179 fishers sampled earned an average income of Ksh. 107,063 each in a year with modal income of Ksh. 57,600 while in a day they earned an average income of Ksh. 518 each with modal income of Ksh. 200. Fishers perceived that...

Biodiversité et stratégies de pêche, exemple des pêcheries du Sénégal
Provedor de dados: 20
Autores: Tidiane, Bousso.
Les implications de la biodiversité sur les pratiques de pêche dans les milieux continentaux en général etestuariens en particulier, sont relativement peu étudiées au Sénégal. les connaissances accumulées sur la bio-écologie des espèces et les modes d’exploitation utilisés par les pêcheurs artisans permettent cependant d’en tirer les grands traits.  Les estuaires du fleuve Sénégal, du Sine Saloum Et de la Casamance ont des systèmes d’alimentation en eau différents. Les variations du régime pluviométrique et l’évolution de la pluviométrie ces trois dernières décennies (succession d’an.nées humides et d’années particulièrement sèches) ont influencé fortement les caractéristiques physico-chimiques de ces cours d’eau. Les espèces de poissons ont développé des...

What is the socio-economic value of the wetlands fisheries? The case of Yala Wetland in Kenya
Provedor de dados: 20
Autores: Abila, R.O.; Othina, A.
Wetlands in most parts of the world are under threat of over-exploitation partly because their socio-economic value is not well known. Yala Wetland, the largest freshwater wetland in Kenya, with a large part of it bordering Lake Victoria’s shoreline, faces even greater threats of extinction. This wetland measures about 17,500 ha and is host to a number of indigenous fish species, animals and plants which are exploited by the local communities for subsistence and commercial purposes.There has been pressure to reclaim portions of this wetland for agricultural activity. So far, 2,300 ha has, indeed, been drained for commercial agriculture. Furthermore, it is difficult to control effort in the exploitation of the remaining wetland resources since the...
