meter in length. They have no teeth and generally feed on algae and invertebrates.
Milkfish is considered one of the oldest farmed species of fish in Asia. Its ability to
thrive in varying water conditions make it an ideal fish to be grown in the confines of
an inland pond or a cage out in the sea. Milkfish is an extremely “bony” fish. Its
white meat has a mild flavor that makes the fish good for a variety of cooking
preparations. Milkfish is usually fried, made into soup and even char-grilled.

greater than 20 degrees Celsius. Milkfish have a spindle-like shape that is moderately
compressed, smooth and streamlined. Its body color is silvery on the belly and sides,
The wild catch is limited to just slightly more than one percent of total world
production. First farmed around 800 years ago in the Philippines and Indonesia,
global annual aquaculture production of milkfish has increased every year since 1997;
produced globally in 2000. Milkfish remains one of the world's most important
farmed fish species. The milkfish is a staple in the Philippines and parts of Indonesia.
The most important producers at this time are Indonesia and the Philippines,
which combined account for slightly more than 95 percent of global aquaculture
production. Milkfish are farmed by trapping fry on the coastal beaches, lagoons and
estuaries where the adults spawn. The fry are then raised in sea cages, saline ponds or
concrete tanks. Milkfish are generally marketed commercially under two pounds.
The pink flesh is rather soft and widely consumed in Southeast Asia where it
has been farmed for centuries. The mild meat has numerous small bones that must

and preparations compensate for its mild flavor. The meat can also be used for
farming along the coast of Kenya at different scales with the aim of addressing
poverty and food security at the community level. This paper provides an overview of
and production dynamics, using both secondary and primary data. Primary data were
milkfish farming groups, while secondary data were obtained from the grey literature
and donor-funded project reports. Additional primary data were obtained through 9
key informant interviews covering three coastal Counties, and focus group
discussions (8-10 members) at all the community milkfish farms. The study
established that milkfish farming could be traced back to the early 1980’s as a by-
product of the prawn farming intervention by FAO, and later in other private farms
was initiated about two decades ago using organised community groups (OCGs) as
the entry point. The number of OCGs undertaking milkfish farming fluctuated with
availability of donor funds and increased significantly between 2007 and 2015 with an
increase in earthen pond farming area from 0.9ha to 6.8ha over this period. However,
the scale of production remained low. Annual milkfish production increased from less
than 50kg in 2005 to a maximum of 3.2 tons in 2015. Milkfish farming has not
attained production levels that can address poverty and food security issues; a fact that
was associated with the lack of reliable milkfish seed for stocking culture facilities.

Lumpia, a popular Filipino delicacy, has achieved international acclaim for its
delicious tastes and various applications. At the core of this popular snack is the
modest lumpia wrapper, a thin, delicate pastry that serves as a canvas for a variety of
fillings and culinary creations. In this study article, we will investigate the numerous
features of the lumpia wrapper, including its culinary importance, nutritional worth,
The lumpia wrapper, also known as the spring roll wrapper, is a thin,

These wrappers are commonly used to hold a wide range of contents, from savory
meats and vegetables to sweet fruits and sweets. The process of making the ideal
Nutritionally speaking, the lumpia wrapper has an unusual profile. While flour
is often the main ingredient, the wrapper can also contain additional ingredients such
tapioca starch or rice flour, which might affect its nutritional value (Aquino et al.,
2018). According to studies, the lumpia wrapper can be a source of carbs, with extra
nutritional advantages depending on the recipe and components used (Lim et al.,
2020).
Beyond its culinary applications, the lumpia wrapper has sparked interest in
the world of life sciences. Researchers have investigated the wrapper's possible use as
nutraceuticals (Aquino et al. 2018). The wrapper's thin, flexible structure, along with
its capacity to enclose a diverse variety of fillings, makes it an appealing prospect for
novel applications in the food and pharmaceutical sectors (Lim et al., 2020).
