چکیده
This study aims to determine climate change-related risk (CCR) impacts, responses of farmers, and assistant activities in tilapia cage culture (TC), striped catfish nursery (SCN), grow-out (SCG), improved extensive shrimp (IES) intensive (IS) systems. A survey 601 farmers the Mekong Delta, Vietnam, was conducted using clustered sampling. Intense rainfall events rapid changes temperature affected all five surveyed farm Extreme high temperatures impacted TC, IES IS systems, while extreme low groups (SCN SCG). Striped farming systems were more sensitive comparison tilapia. For management purposes, increasing pond dike height applied SCN SCG While increased depth observed SCN, had higher counts additional construction. Water quality monitored feed supplements/medicines used by systems; however, these for than TC groups. Reduced stocking density IS, but not IES. In addition, use aerators or mixers most-employed solution system. Amongst information sources climate-related risks, television found be most important, followed neighbouring Department Fisheries (DOF)...

متن کاملFactors affecting farmers’ adoption of integrated rice–fish farming systems in the Mekong delta, Vietnam
In the Mekong delta, inland fishing and rice production provided a major source of income for rural communities. Since early settlement, the inhabitants have caught fish. Still, fish provides the main source of animal protein in their daily diet (Madan et al. 2005). Fish are caught in flood plains and in rice fields. The wild fish catch has declined since 1970 (Gagauan & Arce 1992), as a result...
