Fishery Development In Zambia
Although Zambia is a landlocked country, it contains some of Africa's most important wetlands, lakes and major river systems. Assisted by the UN Food and Agriculture Organization, Zambia is developing fish farming in the traditional and commercial sectors. The fishing industry is providing Zambia with an inexpensive diet, employment and hard currency income. A top quality crocodile belly can fetch as much $1,000.
