Integrating bivalves in IMTA system using earthen ponds
Share
Abstract
This study aimed to integrate the mangrove clam Anodontia philippiana, which has the capacity to assimilate sulfide in a pond culture system with milkfish Chanos chanos and seaweeds Gracilariopsis heteroclada. Specifically, it aimed to know the effects of integrating other commodities on the growth and survival of milkfish, the primary culture species in IMTA in ponds.
