Abstract: Small-pond aquaculture of tilapia fish is identified as one of four top priorities in the Solomon Islands Aquaculture Development Plan 2009-2014, so now more detailed work is needed on this sector. The Solomon Islands Tilapia Aquaculture Action Plan 2010–2015 has been prepared to (1) set out a logical and structured pathway for sustainable tilapia aquaculture development in Solomon Islands, and (2) identify potential roles for partner agencies in supporting tilapia aquaculture and helping meet national needs for food security and sustainable livelihoods.
