GLOBALGAP certificate awarded for Tra fish farmers

Four members of a cooperative group in the Mekong Delta province of Tra Vinh have become the first Tra fish farmers in Vietnam to receive the GLOBALGAP certificate.

Headed by Giang Van Bay from Tan Hoa commune, Tieu Can district, the four farmers are raising Tra fish in 1.2 hectare of water surface. 

 

The group is among beneficiaries of a sustainable Tra fish supply chain programme implemented in the Mekong Delta provinces of Tien Giang, Dong Thap, and Tra Vinh, with funding from European GLOBALGAP organization, the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF), GIZ of Germany, IDH of Holland and Anova Seafood of Holland. 

This programme aims at equipping local fish farmers and feed makers with knowledge and practical skills to produce products meeting international requirements.
