THESIS TITLE: Better utilization of manure in integrated pig-fish farming in Viengchang, LAO PDR
Major: Animal Sciences
Code: 9620105
Author name: Ms. Tick Nouanthavong
Supervisors:
1. Assoc. Prof. Nguyen Duy Quynh Tram, PhD
2. Assoc. Prof. Du Thanh Hang, PhD
Institutions: University of Agriculture and Forestry, Hue University
Contribution of the dissertation:
This thesis provides descriptive information on the nitrogen budget of pig manure to be used in aquaculture ponds for an estimate of pig manure used in integrated farming systems. This thesis proves the Gene-environment interaction or Genotype-environment interaction (GxE interaction) on tilapia fingerling growth. This finding is important as a baseline for developing integrated farming systems in Lao PDR.
Aquaculture is still undeveloped in Lao PDR, where most of the aquatic products are from natural resources. Simultaneously, animal husbandry has been attained at a certain level that increases meat production in the country. Integrated and poly-culture systems could be the best solution to help gradually develop aquaculture and at the same time reduce organic pollution from livestock production. This system has been practiced for tens of years in Vietnam but still relatively new to Lao PDR. It is, therefore, an advantage to Lao PDR to apply and practice the system.
