Environmental impact and growth performance of IMTA species in marine pen culture system
Share
Abstract
In this study, locally available marine species were tested, milkfish (Chanos chanos) as the fed species, seaweed (Kappaphycus alvarezii) as inorganic-extractive species for the water column, and sandfish (Holothuria scabra) as organic-extractive species on the sediments. This study aims to verify and improve IMTA systems suitable for farm conditions in coastal areas in the Philippines, with emphasis on mitigating the environmental impacts of mariculture of milkfish.
