Abstract

The raw analytical results of this study have only very recently been generated. Therefore, in this article the objective is to provide a brief overview of the study and some examples of the early results. An estimate of warm water fish farming potential in Africa already has been made (Kapetsky, 1994) and the implications for food security have been examined (Kapetsky, 1995). However, no similar studies have yet been made for Latin America. The objective was to estimate the potential fish farming in the inland waters of continental Latin America to: (1) stimulate improved planning for aquaculture development at national levels (2) provide information to plan comprehensively for technical assistance activities by FAO and other national and international organisations.
