MESSAGE FROM EDITOR

Our hopes of coming back to normalcy during 2021 were defeated by the second wave of Corona virus and now we are gaping at the possibility of a third wave. While the industry has learned some lessons to cope with the impacts of the pandemic, still both fisheries and aquaculture activities have not come back to normal, impacting on the livelihoods and economies. On the positive side the sector is receiving more attention in food and nutritional security discussions in recent times as evident from the just concluded events at the UN Food Systems Summit.

Due to lockdowns and travel restrictions, conferences/training programs are being held online, which will be the case with some of AFS planned activities.

Stay safe, stay healthy.
