Event: Asian-Pacific Aquaculture (APA) 2013

We've just got news of the World Aquaculture Society event Asian-Pacific Aquaculture (APA) in Hi Chi Minh City, Vietnam, December 10-13, 2013. I know December seems a long way off but I thought I'd give you a sneaky peek of what promises to be a fantastic few days.

After the first successful meeting in 2007, Asian-Pacific Aquaculture 2013 will be the next chance for the international aquaculture community to visit Vietnam and see the rapidly expanding aquaculture industry in Vietnam – nearly 50 percent increase in the last five years in hectares in aquaculture production and over 100 percent per year increase in tons produced every year for the last 16 years.

Attendees will be able to see what is happening in Vietnamese aquaculture to create this growth as well as aquaculture developments in the rest of Southeast Asia.

Asian-Pacific Aquaculture 2013 is the place to learn about the latest in aquaculture, see the newest technology in the trade show with exhibits from around the world and enjoy the many tourist sights in Vietnam.

Highlights include:
Special producer programme
Asian-Pacific Aquaculture 2013 will have a special Farmer’s Day with the latest in practical knowledge for the Vietnam aquaculture producers.

Technical programmes
Sessions and workshops at Asian-Pacific Aquaculture 2013 will cover all aspects of aquaculture in Vietnam as well as Southeast Asia.

5th International Oyster Symposium  (IOS5)
The World Oyster Society will hold its 5th Oyster Symposium with Asian Pacific Aquaculture 2013 in the same location. Registration for Asian Pacific Aquaculture 2013 will include attendance to this 5th Symposium.
