“VALUE CHAIN ANALYSIS OF AQUACULTURE DEVELOPMENT IN MYANMAR” 5. chapter (5)Aung Lwin
The document summarizes survey findings from Myanmar's aquaculture value chain. Key findings include: 1) Hatcheries and feed production are underdeveloped, relying heavily on imports. 2) Land access and tenure issues plague farmers, with unclear or expensive licensing driving land prices up. 3) Access to finance is difficult for farmers due to lack of collateral. The document recommends: 1) Expanding hatchery production of marketable species. 2) Improving nursery techniques and infrastructure. 3) Developing the feed industry and increasing farmer access to affordable pelleted feed. 4) Reforming land laws and increasing access to low-interest loans. 5) Strengthening extension services and veterinary support for farmers.
“VALUE CHAIN ANALYSIS OF AQUACULTURE DEVELOPMENT IN MYANMAR” 4. chapter (4)Aung Lwin
This document discusses the value chain analysis of rohu fish aquaculture development in Myanmar based on surveys of upstream, midstream, and downstream actors. It provides an overview of the survey methodology and profiles of actors interviewed. The upstream sector includes seed suppliers, hatcheries, feed suppliers, and other inputs. Government hatcheries produce some seeds but most commercial ponds purchase from private hatcheries, which have increased production over 10 years. Rohu is the top species produced. The document examines seed production and hatcheries in further detail.
“VALUE CHAIN ANALYSIS OF AQUACULTURE DEVELOPMENT IN MYANMAR” 3. chapter (3)Aung Lwin
The document discusses the history and development of Myanmar's fisheries sector. It notes that fisheries provide an important source of protein and livelihoods. The sector is managed by the Ministry of Agriculture, Livestock and Irrigation and the Department of Fisheries. Freshwater fisheries have historically focused on the country's extensive river systems. The sector has developed in recent decades, with aquaculture production growing dramatically after legal reforms in the 1990s. International organizations and the Myanmar Fisheries Federation also play roles in supporting the fisheries sector.
“VALUE CHAIN ANALYSIS OF AQUACULTURE DEVELOPMENT IN MYANMAR” 2. chapter (2)Aung Lwin
The document discusses the concept of value chains and their application to aquaculture. It defines key terms like value chain, value chain analysis, and the different segments of aquaculture value chains. The upstream segment involves input suppliers, the midstream involves fish farmers, and the downstream involves post-harvest activities like processing and retail. The document also reviews the role of fisheries and aquaculture in meeting global food demand and its economic and social contributions worldwide. China is currently the world's largest aquaculture producer.
“VALUE CHAIN ANALYSIS OF AQUACULTURE DEVELOPMENT IN MYANMAR” 1. chapter (1)Aung Lwin
This document provides an introduction and overview of a study analyzing the Rohu fish aquaculture value chain in Myanmar. It discusses the declining agriculture sector and increasing importance of fisheries and aquaculture for Myanmar's economy. The document outlines the objective to analyze value chain development among different actors in Rohu fish aquaculture. It describes the descriptive research method using primary interviews and secondary data collection. The study is limited to the 2000-2001 to 2015-2016 period and does not include all value chain actors. The document provides the organization of the upcoming thesis into chapters covering literature review, aquaculture sector development in Myanmar, value chain analysis findings, and conclusions.

“VALUE CHAIN ANALYSIS OF AQUACULTURE DEVELOPMENT IN MYANMAR” B. abstractAung Lwin
This thesis analyzes the value chain of Rohu fish aquaculture in Myanmar, which accounts for over 70% of fish aquaculture. Based on interviews with 100 actors along the value chain in 8 townships, the study found that upstream hatcheries, nurseries, and transportation are developing, but aqua-feed, equipment, and machinery need improvement. In the midstream, natural resources, farming practices, labor, and experiences of pond owners are favorable, but land tenure, access to finance, extension services, and veterinary services require government support. Downstream, intermediaries, wholesalers, and traders function well for local markets, but exports need expansion to new international markets through value-added fisheries

This document provides background information on Yangon Region in Myanmar. It discusses the region's historical background as the former capital city of Yangon, geographical location bordering other regions, climate and population. Yangon Region has a tropical monsoon climate with a rainy season from April to November. It has the third highest population in Myanmar and is ethnically diverse, with the Bamar ethnic group being the majority. The region consists of several districts and townships centered around its capital city of Yangon, the largest city and most important commercial center in the country.

Report for Business Start-Up Training PalawAung Lwin
This document provides a report on a small business start-up skills training conducted in Palaw Townships, Myanmar from January 14-15, 2014. The training was organized by World Vision Myanmar and aimed to teach 27 participants, who were members of village savings and loan associations, skills related to starting small businesses. Over the two days, participants learned about basic economic concepts, marketing, accounting, and business planning. Evaluations showed participants' knowledge increased, with correct answers on a post-test rising from 31% to 80%. Most participants were interested in starting trading, livestock or agriculture businesses. The report concludes more time may be needed to cover all material and suggests evaluating training impact by following up on whether participants started businesses.
