Small-scale IMTA of milkfish in pens: The Pandaraonan, Guimaras, Philippines experience
Share
Abstract
This study examines IMTA as an option for small-scale fish farmers to grow multiple species in the same area in the coastal waters of Barangay Pandaraonan in Nueva Valencia, Guimaras, Philippines. The study aimed to explore the feasibility of an economically profitable IMTA system where milkfish are grown with sandfish and seaweeds.
