Drought-resistant aquaculture fish species
This Disaster Risk Reduction (DRR) good practice technology consists in the introduction of drought-resistant fish species such as common carp for aquaculture production in dry areas of Lao PDR. These fish species grow faster than usually raised species such as Mrigal (Cirrhinus mrigala) and tilapia. Furthermore, they can survive in shallow water, and therefore they reduce aquaculture production losses in the case of dry spells when the water level in ponds is low.
