A virtual training program will be held to explore innovative solutions, tips, and techniques of the In-Pond Raceway System (IPRS), showcasing a set of different case studies. 

In this training course hosted by the U. S. Soybean Export Council (USSEC) and the United Soybean Board (USB) in partnership with WorldFish in Egypt, scientists and academicians will convene to share insights on IPRS system development and discuss challenges and opportunities for aquaculture in Egypt.
