Product Description

Although of comparatively recent origin, cage aquaculture is playing an increasingly important role in the world production of food fishes, not only for the high market value marine species but also for the carp and tilapias. The aim of this book is to provide a synthesis of information on cages and cage aquaculture. The author discusses related areas of research and problems facing cage operators, suggesting where solutions may be found. the book is not intended as a do–it–yourself manual although it does deal with the practicalities of establishing and managing a cage farm. It should rather be viewed as a comprehensive reference source for those working with cages as well as for students, researchers, conservationists and resource managers.

5.0 out of 5 stars Outstanding reference and textbook, 24 Feb 1999

By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com

This review is from: Cage Aquaculture (Fishing News Books) (Paperback)

Outsdanding textbook for college and graduate students, as well as an excellent source of reference for consultants and professionals in the field of aquaculture. It covers most aspects related to cage aquaculture, from site selection to environmental issues, including system design, stocking densities, feeding and management strategies and so forth. It is mandatory reading in my aquaculture courses and I strongly recommend it to anybody interested in the field.
