dc.description.abstract	The policy brief highlights the need to addressing bottlenecks in the tilapia production value-chain to enable African farmers to respond to ever changing consumer demands and environmental conditions. It further states that for long-term sustainability, greater effort should be on harnessing the comparative advantage of Africa’s indigenous aquaculture species that are adapted to the local environments. This policy brief was made possible through financial support provided by the European Union (EU) funded Project “Strengthening the Capacity of African Countries to Conservation and Sustainable Utilisation of African Animal Genetic Resources.''	en
