Brief

Bangladesh Fisheries Research Institute (BFRI) is an autonomous research organization established in 1984 as a national institution for the planning, coordination and conduct of fisheries research in Bangladesh. Though the Institute was established in 1984, it actually started functioning in 1986 with the recruitment of manpower and initial development of infrastructure.

The major objectives of the institute are to carry out and coordinate basic and adaptive research for development and optimum utilization of all living aquatic resources; to develop low-cost, less labor intensive, environment friendly improved fish culture and management technologies; to develop technologies for commercially important aquatic products including shrimps; and to develop skilled technical manpower through training and demonstration. BFRI established a Library and Documentation Centre (BFRILDOC) at its headquarters to meet the need of a formal system for the documentation of technical information in the field of fisheries research in Bangladesh. The library has about 2,600 technical and general books and 83 titles of scientific periodicals.

From time to time the Institute publishes research findings, annual reports, newsletters, journals, directories, research reports, proceedings of conferences, seminars and workshops, training manuals, extension materials, booklets, leaflets and posters. The research, training and management activities of the Institute are carried out in close cooperation with universities, research organizations, and various other national and international agencies. It also keeps close contact with different NGOs working in the country for the dissemination of technologies on fisheries development.
