Up to 70% of a fish can become waste during processing, but it doesn’t have to.
Turn fish by-products into feed or fertilizer through simple fermentation.
The @FAO fish silage manual shows how to cut waste & create low-cost, local alternatives 👉 doi.org/10.4060/cd0799en

Fisheries & aquaculture are key to transforming agri-food systems in #SIDS, #LDCs & #LLDCs.
As highlighted in this @FAO report, integrated approaches, from ecosystem-based management to infrastructure & digital tools, are supporting resilience where it’s needed most.
We’ve moved from fragmented support to structured, programmatic action for #SIDS, #LDCs & #LLDCs, aligning efforts around shared priorities, common frameworks, and scalable solutions.
This is how we drive real, sustainable change and build resilience @FAO
