Additional Information: [1] Acknowledgements: Many people contributed to this study. I would like to express my gratitude to all GoInterfish headquarters and field staff that made this study possible and my stay in Bangladesh a very pleasant one. I would like to thank in particular those who accompanied me during the fieldwork for their patience and dedication. I had plenty of opportunity to discuss with many of them several issues that required clarification, and I am grateful for their ideas and suggestions. In this regard, I would like to mention the special assistance ofMichael Brewin (Go-Interfish Team Leader), Thomas Lewinsky (Go-Interfish Project Co-ordinator), Abdul Malek Khan (Go-Interfish Technical Officer, Sustainable Aquaculture, Thakurgaon Office), Golam Sarowar Talukder (Go-Interfish Project Manager, Thakurgaon Office), Nazrul Islam (GoInterfish Project Development Officer, Socio-Economics, Dinajpur Office), Nurul Kabir (GoInterfish Project Officer, Partnership, Rangpur Office), Hem Chandra Roy (Go-Interfish Technical Officer, Sustainable Agriculture, Thakurgaon Office) and Jabed Alam Khan (GoInterfish Administrative Officer, Headquarters). This study would not have been possible without the contribution of many farmers, traders and key informants in government institutions, NGOs and donor agencies who devoted some of their valuable time to answer my queries. They proved an invaluable source of information and insight, and I thank them all for their hospitality. Finally, I would also like to thank my colleague Claire Coote for her comments and suggestions to previous draft versions of this report and DFID for its support in co-funding the study.
