Fish, sediment and dams in the Mekong
The Mekong River is exceptional, by global standards, for its concentration of sediments, its biodiversity and its fisheries. It features 781 fish species, including 165 migratory species; more than 2.1 million tonnes of fish are harvested each year, which represents about 18% of the world’s freshwater fish yield and makes it the largest inland fishery in the world.
