  abstract = {{F}or the last 15 years {S}outh {E}ast {A}sian fish farming of {P}angasiids has shown dramatic growth and expansion. {A} main contributor in this field, {V}ietnam is the perfect example of a country having displayed a dynamics combining technical improvement derived from development oriented research, adaptability of culture systems and targeting of international markets. {I}n {I}ndonesia, following the example of {V}ietnam, fish farming of pangas catfish is developing too since a few years for both domestic and international markets. {F}ish farming of "pangas" is a traditional activity in {V}ietnam. {I}n order to allow fish farmers not to depend on wild fry in stocking their ponds and cages, a collaborative scientific programme between {F}rance and {V}ietnam was set up in 1993 aimed at mastering artificial propagation of the two main cultured species, {P}angasius bocourti (cultured in cages) and {P}angasianodon hypophthalmus (cultured in manured ponds). {S}uccessfully achieved in 1995, the artificial propagation of pangas led to deep changes in the panga chain. {P}angasius bocourti, grown in cages and the main species for export, displayed difficult sexual maturation in captivity and relatively low fecundity. {T}he other species, {P}. hypophthalmus, showed easy maturation in captivity and a 10 times higher fecundity. {U}nder these conditions, {P}. hypophthalmus has become the main culture species. {A}t the same time, the trend evolved towards an increasing use of industrial feed due to the increasing price of trash fish used for on-farm feed manufacturing. {P}roduction costs come to 0.6-0.7 {US}$/kg (0,4-0,47 euro/kg). {I}n {I}ndonesia, fish farming of pangas really started in the nineties. {I}t is based upon one exotic introduced species, {P}. hypophthamus, and an indigenous one, {P}angasius djambal, cultured both in ponds and in cages, in lakes and in rivers, within mostly small scale family farms on {J}ava, {S}umatra and {B}orneo {I}slands. {V}ietnam's panga production is estimated at 800,000 mt for 2006 and 1 {M} mt for 2007, mainly exported. {I}n {I}ndonesia, production for 2006 is estimated at 31,000 mt.},
