Description In Goa, India, aquaculture is being practised from time immemorial. The methods of fish culture used are traditional and involve composite culture of wild stocks. Despite the ignorance of modern methods of aquaculture, the fish farmers of Goa seem to know many relevant facts empirically from their experience. Brackish water ponds are used to serve several purposes. Some of the ponds are used for fish culture exclusively; some for salt pan-cum-fish culture, while others are used for paddy-cum-prawn culture. Relevant information on the indigenous methods of cultivating common species, their annual yield and economics of aquaculture are discussed in the paper with reference to future prospects of fish farming in Goa
