Description Deputy Speaker Mandali Buddha Prasad on Sunday promised to take the initiative to help involve the
fisher folk in the cultivation of high-valued fish species through the floating cage technology.
Mr. Buddha Prasad inspected the cage cultivation adopted by progressive farmer Lanka Raghu Sekhar
in the Krishna.
At least two tones of Asian sea bass and silver pompano was harvested in the 12 m x 12 m cage installed
in the river before its confluence with the Bay of Bengal.
The Indian Council of Agriculture Research‘s Central Marine Fisheries Research Institute (CMFRI),
Visakhapatnam, has experimented on the cage cultivation in the Krishna under the aegis of Mr. Sekhar.
Addressing the gathering of progressive aqua farmers, CMFRI‘s Mariculture division head (in-charge)
Imelda Joseph said that the CMFRI was keen on encouraging farmers to reap the benefits of cage
cultivation.
