dc.description.abstractThis in-depth study explores (1) the vulnerability of fish farming households to climate-related and socio-economic risks (2) their adaptive capacities in coping with risks, and (3) the role of social capital. It argues that kinship and community are constructed through bridging capital in fish farmer cooperatives and groups. In this way, social capital is mobilized through trust, exchange, regulation and collective action. Large operators can invest in high quality inputs such as fingerlings, feeds and more advanced technologies and are better able to prevent stress to fish and productivity. Smaller operators with less resources must rely on poor quality water in the canals resulting in low fish production.en
