NFRDI PHILIPPINES

We are the Department of Agriculture - National Fisheries Research and Development Institute (DA-NFRDI). Our agency was collectively conceived by the national leadership out of a realization that fisheries research plays a very important role in the development, management, conservation, and protection of the country’s fisheries and aquatic resources.  This realization is embodied under Section 82 of Republic Act (RA) 8550, otherwise known as the Philippine Fisheries Code of 1998 as amended by RA 10654.
