The effect of stunting on growth, survival, and net production of milkfish (Chanos chanos Forsskal)
(Elsevier, 1988)
The seasonal abundance of milkfish fry in the Philippines has led to the practice of buying a sufficient supply during the peak season to compensate for the shortage during slack periods. Fry that are not immediately grown ...
