Dive into the incredible journey of Small Indigenous Fish Species (SIS)—tiny yet mighty contributors to better health, nutrition, and sustainable aquaculture in India.
For centuries, these tiny fish have nourished communities, providing essential nutrients like iron, calcium, omega-3 fatty acids, and vitamins. Once a cornerstone of family diets, SIS gradually disappeared due to the rise of large-scale aquaculture, leaving a nutritional void in households.
✨But the tides are changing!
Through the groundbreaking “Taking Nutrition-Sensitive Carp-SIS Polyculture Technology to Scale” project, supported by BMZ and GIZ, WorldFish and its partners are revitalizing SIS. With innovative hatchery-based mass seed production techniques, nutrition-sensitive aquaculture is transforming ponds into ecosystems of nourishment and helping farmers and women’s self-help groups boost incomes sustainably.
