Overview
Prospective FIPs intend to meet the requirements for active FIPs within one year. These projects are posted on FisheryProgress to help users identify opportunities to support developing FIPs and prevent the start of duplicate FIPs. Prospective FIPs are not yet demonstrating progress toward sustainability.
Fishmeal production companies of Ca Mau and Bac Lieu provinces, along with their customers who are aqua feed corporations and Kim Delta Vietnam, jointly launched the Ca Mau Multispecies FIP - Vietnam in August 2022. December 2022, a quick assessment report on the status of multi-species trawl fisheries in Ca Mau Province, the Ca Mau Fishery Improvement Project Plan and the Partnership Agreement were released to all partners. In March 2023, the partners officially agreed to conduct a multispecies fishery gap assessment in Ca Mau province. The FIP plans to be recognised by two international schemes Fishery Progress and MarinTrust, respectively as Basic FIP and Multispecies FIP Pilot no later than March 2024.
FIP partners conducted meetings and workshops to mobilize support for FIP from the Ca Mau provincial government and other Ca Mau seafood producer and exporter partners. The People's Committee of Ca Mau province has approved the FIP in writing and assigned the Department of Agriculture and Rural Development of Ca Mau province (in July 2023) to coordinate with Kim Delta Vietnam to implement the FIP.
