The present analysis of previous attempts to develop aquaculture and freshwater fisheries is made in order to identify the factors behind the success and failure of previous projects and fishery activities. This is highly relevant to the Sepik River Fish Stock Enhancement Project because previous experiences relate to the rationale for stocking and indicate problems and successes arising through alternative options (other than stocking) for developing this fishery. This document discusses all previous inland fisheries and marine and freshwater aquaculture activities in PNG, including areas outside of the Sepik (and Ramu) River basins.
