Fish farming can help conserve mangrove
Share
Abstract
Recent breakthroughs in hatchery technology allow aquaculture developments which are not merely compatible with mangrove areas, but actually improve mangrove conservation and concurrently permit the exploitation of forestry products. This article discusses the important implications of aquaculture development in mangrove areas, and the rationale underlying site selection, project design and technology.
