• SIS (i.e. mola carplet) is the important source of essential macro
and micro nutrients (i.e. Vitamin A, calcium, iron, zinc and
phosphorus)
• Contribute to eliminate malnutrition and poverty

6. The Role of Fisheries and Aquaculture in reducing
malnutrition in Egypt
• Significant proportion of the Egyptian population suffers from
various forms of malnutrition; stunting, wasting, underweight,
and obesity.
• Micronutrient deficiencies is a major challenge.
• Malnutrition most prevalent in rural areas especially in Upper
Egypt and frontier governorates due to unavailability of fish.

• Evaluation of feed ingredients on fish growth
and nutrient content ongoing in collaboration
with Skretting - 2018
• Testing alternative approaches to feeding fish
to improve the nutritional quality of small size
tilapia for human consumption.
Solutions: More farmed fish with higher nutrition value
• Increase micronutrients level in tilapia fish feed
• Market preference study among low-income
consumers
• Awareness creation on tilapia as nutritious fish;
infographics and support the Egyptian Tilapia
Campaign
• Cooking for nutrient retention

Conclusion
• Use of solar tent drying
improves quality of
small fish products for
promotion of nutrition
security.
• Changes in catch composition from
large cichlids to small pelagics mainly
Usipa (Engraulicypris sardella)
• poor handling and processing
methods of Usipa fish especially
during periods of peak catches.

• USAID AIN project promoted
micronutrient rich mola for better
nutrition outcome
• Process evaluation found that only mola
culture doesn’t ensure frequent mola
consumption.
• USAID AIN project innovated easy to use
mola gill net to increase mola
consumption via frequent harvesting
• Mola gill net was designed in way
that is convenient for women to use
• Mola gill net is suitable for using all
of the season of a year
• Study revealed the mola gill net
enhance women’s participation in
harvesting which led to significant
positive impact on the frequency
and quantity of mola consumption.

FUNDING & SUPPORT
KEY MESSAGES
 The intervention study showed
that Numtrey can stop progress
of wasting while prevention of
stunting will need more
integrated solutions.
 NumTrey is a successful proof-
of-concept of an energy-dense
fish-based locally produced
ready-to-use supplementary
food (RUSF).
 The production concept of
wrapping a fish-paste in crispy
wafer is highly accepted and
meets Cambodian preferences
for snack foods.
• 484 children aged 6-18 months were included and 292 children
completed the study
• 27 clusters were randomized to NumTrey with fish or . Corn-
Soya-Blend (CSB++), multiple micronutrient powder (sprinkles)
or control (no food)
• The children consumed on average 24g NumTrey per day that
could help prevent children from becoming wasted
• There was too little iron in the product to prevent iron deficiency
