FIBER – Advisory service and training for fishermen
The Swiss Fisheries Advisory Service acts as a link between fishery-related research and administration as well as angling. FIBER provides scientific findings and information on management developments in the areas of aquatic environments, fish ecology and fisheries management.
For the period 2016 -2019 FIBER is concentrating on four focal points:
- Preservation and promotion of natural reproduction
- Importance of small water bodies
- Connectivity and diversity of habitats
- (intraspecific) diversity of fish
To this end FIBER organises courses and workshops on a regular basis and publishes brochures or newsletters on current issues.
The FIBER newsletter is published three to four times a year.
