In Bangladesh, there is rampant use of hazardous pesticides in preserving sea fish. These chemical-coated fish are consumed by people all throughout the country and their byproducts are made into poultry feeds. Through MTCP2, four dry fish producer groups have been formed to produce dried fish without using pesticides. After going through theoretical and practical training on different eco-friendly methods of dry fish production, these groups are now producing dried fish organically. Not only is their income secured, but risks on their health have also been reduced, ensuring a healthy life for them.
