Abstract

Part of the larger project AQUADAPT: Inland Aquaculture and Adaptation to Climate Change in Northern Thailand, this policy and practice brief provides climate and technical information on fish pond risks and adaptation due to weather conditions such as drought or excess rain. Farmers rearing large fish often have to contend with dying fish during seasonal transition periods. Practice guidelines help farmers minimize risks associated with the seasonal transition period.
