Description : Chlordecone is a persistent organochlorine pesticide widely used between 1972 and 1993 in the French West Indies to control the root borer in banana fields. Chlordecone use resulted in long-term pollution of soils, contamination of waters, of aquatic organisms, and of fields. Chlordecone is known to be neurotoxic, to increase prostate cancer, and to have negative effects on cognitive and motor development during infancy. In Guadeloupe, most of the freshwater species living in contaminated rivers exceed the French legal limit of 20 ?g·kg?1 wet weight. In the present study (ANR MACHLOMA), we chose a transcriptomic approach to study the cellular effects of chlordecone in the giant freshwater prawn Macrobrachium rosenbergii, an important economical species in Guadeloupe.

Résumé : This book represents a two year study by a team of French biologists to collect, summarise and present the experience and knowledge gained in the rearing of the giant freshwater prawn, not only in the French overseas territories but also in the main countries which are developing this culture. This document comprises four parts : - The first describes the world market. The prawn rearing is already an economic reality in the tropical world, the United States and in Europe. - The second on shows that, although the culture techniques are quite complex, production systems can be adapted to local conditions and markets. - The third part is a practical guide, both for investors and farmers, giving all necessary data to start-up and monitor a project in the best conditions. - The final part summarises the main elements of the biology of this species, in order that people interested in its development may have a better understanding of its life history. The authors were based at the aquaculture laboratory of the Ifremer station of French Guiana from 1989 to 1990 and had 15 years previous experience of this culture in Tahiti and the Caribbean. Regarding this initial complete French synthesis on this species in a special care has been given to balance accurate scientific reporting with the objective of reaching a wider audience.
Quinze années d'expérience sur l'élevage de la crevette d'eau douce tropicale, à Tahiti, aux Antilles et en Guyane, comme dans les principaux pays qui pratiquent cet élevage, sont rassemblées et synthétisées dans cet ouvrage. - Où en est le marché mondial ? Cet élevage est déjà une réalité économique dans le monde tropical, comme sur les marchés américain ou européen. - L'exploitation du cheptel est complexe, mais des schémas de production peuvent être adaptés aux conditions locales d'élevage et de marché. - Ce guide pratique donne toutes les informations nécessaires pour monter un projet et le mettre en oeuvre dans de bonnes conditions. - Pour élever la crevette, il faut mieux la connaître. On trouve ici les éléments essentiels de la biologie de cette espèce. L'ouvrage a été rédigé par l'équipe du laboratoire d'aquaculture de la station Ifremer de Guyane en 1989 et 1990. Ce guide, première synthèse en langue française, est unique en son genre. Il équilibre rigueur scientifique et esprit de vulgarisation pour s'adresser aussi bien aux scientifiques et techniciens qu'aux éleveurs ou aux décideurs du développement.

Résumé : Macrobrachium rosenbergii nodavirus (MrNV) and extra small virus (XSV) were purified from diseased freshwater prawns M rosenbergii and used to infect healthy post-larvae (PL) by an immersion method. Three groups of prawns were challenged with various combined doses of MrNV and XSV. Signs of white-tail disease (WTD) were observed in Groups 1 and 2, which had been challenged with combinations containing relatively high proportions of MrNV and low proportions of XSV. By contrast there was little sign of WTD in Group 3, which had been challenged with a higher proportion of XSV than MrNV. A 2-step Taqman real-time RT-PCR was developed and applied to quantify viral copy numbers in each challenged PL. Results showed that genomic copies of both viruses were much higher in Groups 1 and 2 than they were in Group 3, indicating that MrNV plays a key role in WTD of M rosenbergii. The linear correlation between MrNV and XSV genome copies in infected prawns demonstrated that XSV is a satellite virus, dependent on MrNV, but its role in pathogenicity of WTD remains unclear.

Résumé : Martinique is a French overseas department whose economy relies heavily on agriculture. Organochlorine pesticides, mainly chlordecone, were used for banana cultivation to eradicate banana weevil over a period of 40 years. Chlordecone is chemically stable,and has a strong affinity for fatty tissues. It is therefore able to bioaccumulate in animals and thereby represent a threat to ecosystems and man. Soils from banana plantations in Martinique are heavily contaminated with chlordecone. Possible transfer of these molecules from agricultural watersheds to the aquatic environment and the organisms that live in it is feared. The hypothesis that ecosystems of Martinique might be highly contaminated with this organochlorine pesticide was investigated. Chlordecone levels were measured in various freshwater and marine species. Data show a heavy contamination of many carnivorous and detritivorous species (fish and prawns). Concentrations measured in wild or farmed tilapia are among the highest ever reported in the literature. Some coastal species (fish and lobster) were also found to be contaminated, although to a lesser extent. Given the biogeochemical behavior of chlordecone, the most likely route of contamination is food. Detected concentrations in marine organisms are below the tolerated limits established by authorities. however. the impact of other sources of exposure, namely, contaminated water and root vegetables, remains to be investigated.

Résumé : Lessons for the future from two development projects in aquaculture in the French overseas territories. Numerous research and development projects have been launched since the seventies in the French overseas territories. Their aim was to foster new activities in agriculture based on local productions for local markets, notably in the French West Indies (FWI). In this paper we analyze two development projects on the rearing of giant freshwater prawn, one in the FWI and the other in French Guyana, over twenty years after their launching. The purpose of these compared studies is twofold: first to try to understand why a set of relevant technical innovations ended in failure 15 years later; second to identify recommendations in terms of methodology in order to diminish risks of mistakes or failure for future projects. To reach this goal we followed two approaches. A first analysis is based on a set of three criteria: social acceptability, legitimacy and time planning. The second analysis, justified by the subjective need for an explanatory tool, is based on the actor-network theory. The results show that beyond the levels of political support and financial investment and support the three key criteria for success are: (i) reactivity of the decision-makers, notably when markets change, (ii) quality of leadership transfer between the launching phase and the stabilized phase, and (iii) capacity of the decision-makers to take into account the concrete consequences of the various scenarios. Regarding this third criterion, our analysis suggests that the scenario of full technical success needs to be explored, notably in terms of economic sustainability. The integration of these two types of analyses into an ex-ante frame should contribute to reducing risks of failure in similar development projects.
De nombreux projets d’aquaculture ont été menés depuis les années 1970 dans les territoires et départements français d’outre-mer. L’objectif était de diversifier l’agriculture avec des productions destinées au marché local comme aux Antilles, ou à l’exportation comme en Guyane. L’étude s’intéresse au bilan de deux projets d’élevage de la crevette tropicale d’eau douce aux Antilles et en Guyane, plus de vingt ans après leur lancement. L’objectif est de comprendre comment des innovations technologiques pertinentes ont conduit à deux échecs sur le moyen terme et de tirer des recommandations de méthode afin de réduire les risques d’erreurs ultérieures. Pour cela, deux cadres d’analyse sont mobilisés : le premier s’appuie sur les concepts de temporalité, légitimité et acceptabilité ; le second, motivé par la recherche subjective de cadres explicatifs, emprunte la vision de la théorie de l’acteur-réseau. Les trois déterminants majeurs du succès ou de l’échec se révèlent être la réactivité des responsables face aux problèmes d’adaptation à l’évolution des marchés, la qualité du transfert du leadership lors du passage de la phase de lancement à la phase de croisière et enfin la capacité de prendre en compte dès le départ les conséquences des scénarios d’évolution du projet, y compris la réussite technique. Une capacité d’intégration de ces types d’analyse, dans un cadre ex ante, devrait permettre de réduire les risques d’échec dans des projets de développement similaires à venir.

Résumé : Fish aquafarming is an activity that is starting to take off in Martinique as possible diversification of giant river prawn breeding (Macrobrachium Rosenbergii) which debuted in the middle of the 70s. Two species were involved, one freshwater species (the red tilapia or Saint-Pierre) and a marine species (the redfish or red drum). This mission report presents, in the first section, the local conditions of fish aquafarming development in Martinique – the current characteristics of the breeds, the existing production sector and its management. A second section inventories the main operating constraints of this field – technical or market constraints.

Résumé : En 1987, l'analyse du système d'élevage en continu menée par l' IFREMER tant sur les fermes guyanaises que sur la station expérimentale de Kourou a permis de mettre en évidence les limites et les faiblesses de ce mode d'élevage. Elle a montré la nécessité d'un meilleur contrôle du cheptel depuis l'ensemencement jusqu'à la commercialisation afin de pouvoir atteindre de manière fiable des rendements de l'ordre de 2,5 T/ha/an.
