The two photos show a model of sun-drying of salted fish in Togo. This practice includes the main fish species which are Guinean tilapia (Tilapia guineensis<\/i>), Or\u00e9ochromis sp., Brycinus sp., and H\u00e9michromis sp. The drying as shown takes place on the ground and would require 2-3 weeks which could reach a month depending on temperature regime and\/or fish size. There is a good demand on dried fish in Togo whereas dried, smoked and fresh are displayed in the same fish markets. Fish drying is considered as a valid means of fish conservation in Togo. Fish drying is usually done by women.<\/span><\/p>\n

Note:<\/strong>\u00a0We decided not to watermark the photos in order not to upset its clarity. However, we trust you will notify us if you wish to use a picture or more. This is expected and will be appreciated.<\/p>\n
