Description In recent years interest in aquaculture is gaining
greater momentum. The breeding and rearing
of aquatic plants and animals in enclosures/
confinements, has increased mainly due to over
exploitation of aquatic resources and declining of
fish catches in major traditional fishing grounds at
a global level. The farming of fish is widely recognized
as the best alternative to meet the protein
requirements of the expanding population and
to provide them with alternative livelihood opportunities
for their socio-economic upliftment.
In many countries, especially in the developing
world, fish and other aquaculture products serve
as the main source of cheap protein to combat
malnutrition and under-nutrition.
