SEAFDEC/AQD The SEAFDEC Aquaculture Department (AQD) is a regional treaty organization established in 1973 in the Philippines with a mandate to promote sustainable tropical aquaculture through research, training, and information dissemination. To ensure food security and rural development, AQD conducts extensive research on over 20 commercially important species, including milkfish, shrimp, and tilapia, at specialized stations located in Tigbauan, Dumangas, Igang, and Binangonan. The department provides essential technical services, including disease diagnosis, analytical testing, and hatchery seedstock, while actively transferring science-based technologies through short-term training courses, internships, and a global digital repository. By focusing on key priorities like fry sufficiency and cost-efficient feed development, AQD continues to provide leadership in strengthening stakeholder capacities and advancing sustainable aquatic resource management across Southeast Asia.
