The layout, construction and management of brackishwater fishponds in the Philippines
Share
Abstract
With the advent of new research and studies into aquaculture practices there is a need to improve the size and shape of brackishwater ponds in the Philippines and to make their management more efficient. This article discusses the survey and layout of the project and the engineering aspects of pond management. Milkfish pond management is also considered.
