Title Ecosystem Approach to Aquaculture
 
Creator Kripa, V
 
Subject Aquaculture
 
Description Aquaculture was practiced in several coastal areas of the world by simple methods such as collecting seed
from naturally abundant areas growing them to harvestable size in coastal ponds. Simple supplementary feed
using locally available natural resources wereused and the production rates were moderate. The aqua farmers
were satisfied since investments were low, mass mortalities of stocked resources were rare and there was
moderate profit. These traditional systems in Asia especially in China and Vietnam have been productive for
more than 3000 years.These eco-friendly aquaculture practices like paddy cum fish culture have benefitted
several millions of rural people in Asia and have been designated as a “Globally Important Agricultural Heritage
System”.
