Livestock is a minor sector in Sri Lanka's economy accounting for only albout 7% of the gross value of agricultural production. Total livestock output increased a little over 4% annually during the 1960's according to ofllcial statiStiCs, DUE this growth was concentrated in the early 1960's, and livestock output has not kept pace with population growth since 1965. Livestock products account ror only about 6X of all food protein consumed in Sri Lanka, less than half as much as fish. 2. Sri Lanka has potential for greatly expanding livestock production, even to the extent of eventually becoming a meat exporter. Milk and beeE output can be greatly increased by establishing improved pastures on much of the three million acres of native pastures and parklands used only foir extensive grazing. Local livestock could be upgraded to utilize improved pastur,es but stock imports also would be needed to utilize increasing feed supplies. Opportunities for rapid growth are best in the poultry and pi, industries where improvements in production efficiency could be achieved by better use of rice bran and other by-product feedstuffs. Increased outpult of maize, sorghum, manioc and soyabeans would reduce dependence on feed imports. 3. Statistical information about the livestock industry is conflicting and needs to be improved. Official livestock statistics based on annual returns filed by village headmen indicate that numbers of all classes of livestock increased from 1960 to 1965, except sheep, and have declined suib- stantially since 1965, except poultry (Table 1). Slaughter of all classes of livestock have increased in recent years. Cattle and buffalo slaughter reached a peak in 1969, sheep and goats in 1968 and poultry and pigs in 1967 and then decreased in 1970. Milk production appears to have followed a similar trend (Annex 7, Table 3.21). .%Th,I,W A.

Consumpt.on and Dezand Estimates. Data on production are derived from consumption daita. It is assumed that production and consumption are identical except for known quantities of imported dairy products and very small meat imports (Table 2). Milk consumption estimates shown here for 1970 are based on consumption levels reported in the 1963 consumer survey. Consumption maintained at 1963 per capita levels gives an estimated total of 456 million pints in 1970 consisting of 275 million pints produced locally and 182 million pints imported in milk powder and milk foods (Table 3).

Increases in beef production from 1965 to 1969 resulted from an ala-riug reduct'LoL in the catt'le ,du buffalo population. ConsumptLon per capita for 1970 shows a small decline from the 1963 level. It appears probable that cattle numabers have been maintained during the last year and that the buffalo population continued to decline at about 1.5% annually (see Appendix 1). A decline ir, beef consumption took place despite rising incomes because of declining per capita supplies. Retail prices increased fromn Rs u.84 to Rs 1.14 between 1964 and 1968, then to Rs 1.65 per lb in 1970. Per capita consumption of mutton, pig meat, and poultry meat also have declined since 1963 and prices of these products have increased. However, egg consumption has increased enough to meet demand at prevailing prices (see Appendix 1) . 7. .l-;^.eestimated 8.5%; increase in meat production from 1963 to i970 did aot keep pace with increased demand resulting from population growth an. higher per capita incomes. Demand tor milk hafi*ncreased more than supply since !963 and will contiaue to do so in the years ahead unless pri^du=tion increases more rapidly than in the recent past. Egg production has gone up rapidly and will meet future demand requirements provided growth continues at the recent pace. Retail prices of beef and mutton are afficially corcrolied at Rs i.1O and Rs 2.25 per lb with bones, respectively. These prices are exceeded but controls exert some influence over the prices charged, especially for beef. Retail prices might rise 30% for beef and 10% for mutton if controls were removed.

  • Introduction of an Improved Fish Smoking Method in Andhra Pradesh,India
    Information Bulletin 14 Introduction of an Improved Fish Smoking Method in Andhra Pradesh,India Post-Harvest Fisheries Project Department for International Development Chennai, India This report gives an account of the traditional fish smoking practices in Andhra Pradesh, India, and the findings of a DFID Post-Harvest Fisheries Project pilot study to develop an improved method of smoking based on existing practices, which at the same time is more efficient and cost-effective. It summarises the trials and the comparative efficiencies of the traditional and improved kilns. Activities under this study were taken up in two phases: Phase I, from June to December 1994, was mainly concerned with standardising a prototype design which is technically, economically and socially suitable for local conditions and practices, with the participation of the traditional processors. Stage Il. from February to May 1995, concerned developing a full tledged smoking kiln which could smoke quantities of fish or shrimp equal to that smoked in an average traditional kiln. In the last stage, a more pennanent brick-and-cement kiln was constructed on the suggestions of the processor-women. This report is divided into 4 parts. Part 1 describes the traditional smoking methods. Part II summarises activities in the pre-pilot stage. Part III concerns the pilot phase of the study. Part IV describes the implementation of the activity by the concerned agencies, and the lessons learned by the project in managing the sub-project. The Project thanks the Department of Fisheries, which assisted in successful management of the trials; the District Collector, East Godavari; the District Rural Development Agency, Kakinada; the Backward Classes Development Corporation; tinkers at Kakinada; the various government and non-government agencies and individuals, who provided the necessary encouragement at every step; and most importantly.

  • History of Maldivian Fishing
    History of Maldivian Fishing Traditionally fishery is the main occupation and major livelihood of the Maldivian. It is also the second largest industry in the Maldives. The main methods of fishing are pole and line for Skipjack tuna. The second most important fish caught is the yellow fin tuna. The main fish products exported are; frozen fish, canned fish, dried fish and salted dry fish. The traditional fishing vessel, a sailing ‘Dhoni’, is less than 15 feet long. Thatch sails were used in the early days of fishing, which have been replaced by sail-cloths and rowing. The Maldivian fishery is famous in the world for its dolphin friendliness. The modern fishing vessel revolutionized the Maldivian fishing industry, enabling the fisherman to sail further distances. It meant that the direction and speed of the wind were no longer determinants of the distances traveled by fishermen in search of fish. Establishment of cold storage facilities was another important landmark in the development of the fisheries industry. In the past, the Maldives exported tuna primarily in the dried and smoked form called ‘Hiki Kandumas’ or 'Maldive Fish' to Sri Lanka. Maldives also exported other forms of fish products to Japan and Thailand.

  • An Analysis of the Post Tsunami Domestic Fish Marketing and Consumption Trends in Sri Lanka
    IIFET 2006 Portsmouth Proceedings AN ANALYSIS OF THE POST TSUNAMI DOMESTIC FISH MARKETING AND CONSUMPTION TRENDS IN SRI LANKA S.P.M. Jayantha and Tanaka Hideki Dept. of Food and Environmental Economics, Graduate School of Biosphere Sciences, University Of Hiroshima, 1-4-4, Kagamiyama, Higashi Hiroshima, 739-8528, Japan. [email protected] and [email protected] ABSTRACT Seafood is a staple for most Sri Lankans and the country is a net importer of seafood, because of the heavy consumption. Tsunami has had crippled the Sri Lanka’s main protein supply system and thousands of others in marketing chain lost their jobs. The main focus of the study was to trace the impact of tsunami on domestic fish marketing and post tsunami fish consumption trends in Sri Lanka. Rapid Market Appraisal was carried out to obtain a cross-country comparative perspective on domestic marine fish marketing and mapping the supply chain. Rapid market appraisal was based on semi- structured interviews with key informants of the domestic fish marketing system and the field observations of knowledgeable observers. Three to five participants from each stage of fish marketing system were interviewed to obtain a reliable picture. Marine fish production (dropped by 76%) and fishing operations are long away from the pre-tsunami situation. Tsunami has had devastated the marine fish marketing infrastructure along the south and east coasts, including harbors, landing sites, auction halls, municipal fish markets, private fish stalls, trading vehicles, ice plants, cold storage facilities and processing plants. Tsunami’s impact on domestic fish consumption led to trade losses and badly affect on the fish consumption in coastal villages than the cities where they have better consumption opportunities.

Box 02, Belihuloya [email protected] 2Department of Agribusiness Management, Faculty of Agricultural Sciences, Sabaragamuwa University of Sri Lanka, P.O. Box 02, Belihuloya Abstract The fisheries sector is a vital oceanic resource that build the core of the Blue Economy. However the realization of the full potential of the Blue Economy calls the requirement of effective inclusion of all societal groups, especially women whose contribution is not well acknowledged. The study focused to investigate the fisherwomen’s contribution on decision making, participation and governance in production, marketing and investment and to measure the fisherwomen’s share in consumer rupee and also to find out the opportunities for traditional fisherwomen into professional careers. Questionnaires, field observations, participatory mapping, telephone interviews were applied to collect the primary data. The sample composed of 5 case studies of selected fishing communities in Sri Lanka; Kudawella, Gandara, Ambalangoda, Beruwala and Jaffna. The results revealed that the decision making power was concentrated among males. Maldive fish value chain was female dominated but pricing and investment decisions were influenced by the male members of the family. The women’s contribution towards investment decisions was poor. Fisherwomen share in consumer rupee of Maldive fish and Dried Tuna Fish ranged from 3.7- 3.9% and 8.5-10% respectively. The results indicated that the superfluous involvement of intermediaries keeps female-fishers and markets separated and discouraging them to be market responsive.

Bulbils Introduction The ferns and their allies share a lot of commom morphlogy with the other vascular plants and in many cases the same descriptive terminology is used. However, there are some fundamental and significant differences of structure unique to the pteridophytes and a specialized terminology has evolved to descdribe these. The most obvious difference between the pteridophytes and the remainder of the vascular plants is that the ferns and their allies do not produce large floral or reproductive structures that give rise to seeds which eventually develop into the next generation of plants. Pteridophytes reproduce and disperse by means of microscopic spores, the structure and development of which is every bit as intricate and amazing as the flowers of the higher plants. This outline covers the easily recognised features of the ferns and their alies and mentions many of the technical terms used to describe them.
