摘要

The United States and Japanese counterpart panels on Aquaculture were formed in1969 under the United States-Japan Cooperative Program in Natural Resources (UJNR). The UJNR-Aquaculture panels currently include specialists drawn from the government and academic departments most concerned with aquaculture. Charged with exploring and developing bilateral cooperation, the panels have focused their efforts on exchanging information related to aquaculture that could be of benefit to both countries. Accomplishments of the Aquaculture panels include: increased communication and cooperation among technical specialists; exchanges of scientists and students; focusing of efforts to issues of major international concerns such as disease transmission and stock enhancement; exchanges of information, data, and research findings; annual meetings of the panel, a policy-coordinating body; administrative staff meetings; exchanges of equipment, materials, and samples; several major technical conferences; and beneficial effects of international relations.
