fish production
◦ 145 mmt in 2009
 Aquaculture
fastest growing
food producing sector (8-10%
growth)
3% for live stock and 1.6% for
capture fisheries
 Aquaculture now accounts to
almost 50% of world’s food
fish
OIE Global Conference on AAH-Panama


Fish consumption has been on the rise
◦ A-P accounts for nearly 70% of global
consumption
Per caput
◦ A-P: 43 kg/year
◦ Global: 22 kg/year
Based on current consumption
 By 2050: An extra 30 million tonnes needed
 Where does this “need” come from?
AQUACULTURE is the answer

Aquaculture will intensify, diversify, and
expand
Production of all species groups will be
increased
New species will appear (exotics, e.g.
P.vannamei)
All environments will be increasingly utilized
Increasing influence of markets, trade and
consumption (food safety)
More and more resources will be used
International trade in live aquatic animals and
their products will increase

Benefits:





Serves as early warning system for emerging
threats;
Valuable source of information to support risk
analysis;
establishment of excellent regional networking in
support of disease surveillance and reporting in
the region.
Serves as guide to participating countries in
revising their national list of reportable diseases
Very strongly complements and supports the OIE
disease reporting systems
OIE Global Conference on AAH-Panama
Way Forward:


Development of OIE/NACA WAHIS
Regional Core is in progress;
OIE/NACA WAHIS Regional Core
will replace the paper-based QAAD
reporting system once it is fully
implemented.
OIE Global Conference on AAH-Panama




Working with many governments and
partners
Working on key commodities (shrimp,
catfish)
Identifying risk factors and developing
interventions (e.g. better management
practices)
Promoting the adoption of BMPs through
group/cluster approach
◦ Example: 752 clusters with over 16,000
small farmers implementing shrimp BMPs
in India
OIE Global Conference on AAH-Panama

Scientifically validated BMPs
when applied properly by
small scale farmers using the
cluster/group approach will
◦ improve production efficiency
◦ reduce costs of production
◦ maximize economic returns.
◦ Support compliance to stringent food
safety, aquatic animal health and
market requirements.

1. Spread of IMN in Indonesia
Potential for it to spread to other countries in
the region
Potential for it to spread to native P.monodon
Need for a regional approach to prevent its
spread
NACA IMN alert messages sent to all CA’s
IMN information brochure sent to all countries
Need for developing a regional contingency
plan
OIE Global Conference on AAH-Panama
Spread of IMNV in Indonesia (2006-2010)
Initially reported in Situbondo District, East Java in May 2006 and was contained in this area until
2008.
2009: more districts of East Java (Situ, Banyuwangi, Blitar and Malang); Bali (Jembrana); Lampung
(Pesawaran and South Lampung Dist.), West Nusa Tenggara (East Lombok) and Central Java (Jepara, Blora,
Kendal and Rembang)
2010: more districts of East Java (Bangil, Pasuran and Lamongan); West Nusa Tenggara (West Sumbawa);
West Java; Aceh; West Kalimantan; South Kalimantan.

2. Major shrimp disease outbreak in Vietnam
Over 50,000 ha in 7 coastal provinces of
Mekong Delta affected
Both tiger and white shrimp affected
Confirmatory diagnosis still not available
National, regional and international efforts are
underway to address the situation
OIE Global Conference on AAH-Panama







3. Other unconfirmed shrimp disease problems
India (both tiger and white shrimp)
China (Hainan, Guangxi and Guangdong
provinces)
Malaysia
Both tiger and white shrimp cultured together
Need for close monitoring, surveillance and
follow up
Need for sharing the information
OIE Global Conference on AAH-Panama



4. Expansion of P.vannamei farming
Introduced to several countries in the region (e.g.
China, Thailand, Indonesia, Vietnam, India,
Philippines, Malaysia)
Limited understanding of the SPF concept
◦ Market tool?
◦ Health management tool to promote bio-security?


Using pond raised brood stock is a major concern
Not using the routine PCR seed screening tools
while choosing SPF seed is a major worry (this is a
very common practice for P.monodon seed
selection)
OIE Global Conference on AAH-Panama






5. Exotic and native-long term outlook
Now in many countries both tiger and white
shrimp are cultured in same geographical
locations and in some cases as poly-culture
Provides excellent opportunities for transfer of
pathogens between two species
Already the region has TSV and IMNV
P.vannamei has brought in lot of economic
benefits but is there a time bomb waiting to
explode?
Occurrence of exotic diseases in resource poor
countries could pose significant risk to others
OIE Global Conference on AAH-Panama






6. WSD in Brunei
First report of WSSV from Brunei in
P.stylirostris
Achieving fool proof bio-security is very
difficult
This provided a good example of national
efforts in containing the problem
Also showed that it is very expensive to
implement a stamping out operation
Highlights the importance of timely availability
of technical and financial resources
OIE Global Conference on AAH-Panama




7. Introduction of new stocks of native species
Introduction of wild P. monodon broodstock
from Africa (Mozambique) and Australia to Asia
for setting up domestication programs
Need for proper risk analysis
Tendency to lower the stringency for import
requirements and health inspections as
compared to an exotic species
OIE Global Conference on AAH-Panama





8. Re-emergence of EUS
There is a feeling of complacency in many
countries
Severity of outbreaks is serious in some of the
countries (e.g. India)
Huge economic losses in culture systems
Also an issue for export of ornamentals to EU
OIE Global Conference on AAH-Panama


9. Intensification
Mekong striped catfish
◦ 200-400 tonnes/ha/crop in Vietnam
◦ System unique to Vietnam and Mekong Delta

Catfish in India and Bangladesh
◦ 30-40 tonnes/ha/crop

Red Tilapia
◦ Series of problems in recent years in Thailand, Indonesia
and Vietnam (Streptococcus infection)

Limited focus on low value species. Much of the
attention is on high value species. This needs to
change
OIE Global Conference on AAH-Panama





10. Increased focus on molecular diagnostics
In the last decade more capacity built in the region
for molecular biology and its applications
Reduced interest in conventional diagnostics and
hence reduced capacity for histopathology,
bacteriology, mycology and parasitology
Limited capacity for epidemiology and risk analysis
Consequence
◦ holistic approach in dealing with new disease outbreaks
and emerging disease events lacking
OIE Global Conference on AAH-Panama



11. Aquaculture Certification
Perception concerning Asia Pacific
◦ Public institutions not able to enforce full compliance to
international mandatory standards (e.g. food safety and
animal health) and other voluntary standards (e.g.
environment and social)
Mushrooming of private standards and third party
certification schemes
◦ Confusion to small scale primary producers
◦ Will they help to improve compliance to animal health
standards?

Clear need for provision of services to the small
scale sector to enhance compliance to both
mandatory and voluntary standards
OIE Global Conference on AAH-Panama




12. Cooperation between veterinary and
fisheries authorities
In many of the AP countries, aquatic animal
health responsibilities come under the fisheries
departments
Nomination of OIE aquatic focal points is a
significant step forward
Need to further strengthen the cooperation
◦ Better implement the national strategies
◦ Enhance participation of aquatic animal health
experts in the OIE standard setting process
OIE Global Conference on AAH-Panama



13. National Government Support
Compared to livestock, aquatic animal health
management receives less attention and
priority from governments in AP
Hence a strong need to quantify the social and
economic cost of aquatic animal diseases
◦ Not available for many countries
OIE Global Conference on AAH-Panama




Aquaculture will diversify, expand and
intensify and disease risk will increase in AP
Trade (movement of live animals and their
products) will happen and diseases will
spread in AP
AP should aim to promote responsible
aquaculture and responsible trade
Having effective national strategies will help
to comply with mandatory and voluntary
national and international requirements and
standards
OIE Global Conference on AAH-Panama


NACA endeavors to support governments in Asia
Pacific through projects and capacity building
activities to strengthen compliance to all standards
and requirements including OIE code and standards
NACA will continue to cooperate and collaborate
