Mola, an indigenous small fish species (SIS) rich in vital micronutrients, is crucial in promoting nutrition-sensitive aquaculture in South Asia and can significantly help in reducing malnutrition through food-based strategies. However, the lack of standardized techniques for large-scale hatchery production of this micronutrient-dense SIS presents a major technical barrier to advancing nutrition-sensitive aquaculture approaches.
