  • Part I Review of Capture Fisheries and Aquaculture in the Kyrgyz Republic
    Part I Review of capture fisheries and aquaculture in the Kyrgyz Republic 3 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Kyrgyz Republic (or Kyrgyzstan) is a mountainous country in Central Asia. It is rich in water resources compared with the neighbouring countries and regions. However, the fisheries and aquaculture sector is poorly developed. Total annual fish production is 71.4 tonnes. Even when the 3 000 tonnes imported from neighbouring countries is included, annual fish consumption in the country amounts to less than 1 kg per capita, compared with 16.5 kg on a global level. Kyrgyzstan was part of the former Union of the Soviet Socialist Republics (former USSR) until 1991, and the fisheries sector was much more developed in the 1980s than at present. In the 1980s, national production reached 1 400 tonnes/year and large volumes of affordable fish for the population reached the country from other parts of the former USSR. The dissolution of the former USSR was followed by dramatic increases in prices of imported products including fish feeds and technology needed for aquaculture, causing fish prices to increase considerably for consumers. The economic difficulties that came in the wake of independence resulted in a dramatic decline in governmental support to fisheries and aquaculture. Most state-owned fish farms were privatized, and there was no longer an adequate budget available to undertake research, gather statistics or monitor the activities of the fisheries. In regard to capture fisheries, the most important management tool, since Soviet times, has been restocking with various commercial fish species (most introduced from watersheds elsewhere in the Russian Federation and Central Asia).

Wilson 1,2 and Rysbek Satylkanov 3 1 Geography department, University of Colorado-Boulder, Boulder, CO 80309, USA; [email protected] 2 Cooperative Institute for Research in Environmental Sciences (CIRES), Boulder, CO 80309, USA; [email protected] 3 Kyrgyz Institute of Water Problems and Hydropower, Bishkek 720033, Kyrgyzstan; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +1-720-369-3009 Academic Editor: Daene C. McKinney Received: 16 March 2017; Accepted: 3 May 2017; Published: 5 May 2017 Abstract: Water vulnerabilities in Central Asia are affected by a complex combination of climate-sensitive water sources, trans-boundary political tensions, infrastructure deficiencies and a lack of water management organization from community to federal levels. This study aims to clarify the drivers of water stress across the 440 km Naryn River basin, headwater stem to the Syr Darya and the disappearing North Aral Sea. We use a combination of human and physical geography approaches to understand the meltwater-controlled hydrology of the system (using hydrochemical mixing models) as well as the human-water experience (via community surveys). Surveys indicate that current water stress is primarily a function of water management and access issues resulting from the clunky transition from Soviet era large-scale agriculture to post-Soviet small-plot farming. Snow and ice meltwaters play a dominant role in the surface and ground water supplies to downstream communities across the study’s 4220 m elevation gradient, so future increases to water stress due to changes in volume and timing of water supply is likely given frozen waters’ high sensitivities to warming temperatures.

Article 10(2) requires that the list of 200 founding members must also be notarized and approved by the local city council. Osh, Naryn, and Jalal-Abad.
