Catch and Culture Vol. 10, No. 1
Fish catches from Cambodia's dai fishery reached a record low this season. While dry conditions were partly to blame, there are other worrying factors. The commercial dai fishery is a small part of the total Cambodian fishery, but often serves as a useful indicator of the overall situation - which is now poised to become a major policy issue for Cambodia and its neighbours.
