Bama:Fish farming in floating cages is gaining momentum on the Samandéni dam in Bama, where Eva Kaboré successfully harvested fish after four months of farming. This endeavor is part of a project supported by the Ministry in charge of Animal and Fisheries Resources, aimed at enhancing local production and contributing to food self-sufficiency.

According to Burkina Information Agency, the project is backed by the Ministry of Agriculture, Water, Animal and Fisheries Resources, with financial support from the Burkina Faso Economic and Social Development Fund (FBDES) "Tõogo". The project aims to produce between 15 and 20 tons of fish monthly, utilizing the fishing potential of the Samandéni dam.

Eva Kaboré managed to stock twelve floating cages with approximately 20,000 fingerlings each over a two-hectare area acquired from the dam. After four months, the results are deemed satisfactory, with some fish exceeding one kilogram in weight. Kaboré expressed gratitude for the support from her partners, which was crucial for the initiative's success.

The fish farming initiative on the Samandéni dam not only aims to boost fish production but also to create economic opportunities for stakeholders in the sector. This aligns with the authorities' commitment to fostering local production and achieving food self-sufficiency under the Popular Progressive Revolution (PPR) framework.
