A two-day Training-cum-Capacity Building Programme on \u201cClimate Resilient Aquaculture Technologies\u201d for fish farmers and entrepreneurs of Manipur was organised on March 28 and March 29 at Manipur University, Canchipur.<\/p>\n

The programme is being jointly organised by the Department of Zoology, Manipur University, in collaboration with ICAR-Central Institute of Fisheries Education, Mumbai, with the inaugural session held at the VC Court Hall.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The inaugural function began at 9:30 AM in the presence of several dignitaries. Director of the Directorate of Environment and Climate Change, Government of Manipur, Dr. T. Brajakumar Singh attended as the Chief Guest. Dean of the School of Life Sciences, Prof. N. Mohilal Meitei, and Principal Scientist of ICAR-CIFE, Dr. S. Munilkumar, were present as Guests of Honour. The function was presided over by Head of the Department of Zoology, Prof. Ksh. Birla Singh.<\/p>\n

The programme began with the felicitation of dignitaries, followed by a welcome address by Dr. Rameshori Yumnam, who is also the coordinator. She highlighted the urgent need to adopt climate-resilient aquaculture practices in view of increasing climate variability affecting fish production systems across Northeast India.<\/p>\n

Speaking on the inaugural function, Dr. Munilkumar underscored the importance of scientific interventions, capacity building and technology dissemination to improve precision farming, aquaculture productivity and sustainability. He also stressed the need to integrate modern aquaculture techniques with local knowledge systems.<\/p>\n

Prof. Mohilal Meitei noted that Manipur is essentially a lacustrine society, with livelihoods and culture deeply linked to water bodies. He emphasized that sustainable fisheries are crucial for ensuring food security, nutrition and preserving cultural heritage.<\/p>\n

In his address, Chief Guest Dr. Brajakumar Singh highlighted the role of environmentally sustainable aquaculture in tackling climate change and securing livelihoods for fish farmers. He encouraged participants to actively engage in the training and adopt innovative practices.<\/p>\n

Presiding over the function, Prof. Birla Singh reiterated Manipur University\u2019s commitment to strengthening research, training and extension activities in aquaculture for the benefit of local communities.<\/p>\n

As part of the inaugural programme, essential aquaculture inputs were distributed to participants. The session concluded with a vote of thanks proposed by Dr. M. Manorama Devi.<\/p>\n

The two-day programme held on March 28\u201329, 2026, aims to equip participants with practical knowledge on climate-resilient aquaculture technologies such as biofloc, aquaponics and hatchery management. It also focuses on water management, species diversification and sustainable farming practices.<\/p>\n

The initiative is expected to enhance adaptive capacity, improve productivity and promote sustainable aquaculture development in Manipur and the wider Northeast region.<\/p>\n
