Aquaculture Production Systems

Aquaculture is concerned with the breeding, rearing and harvesting of aquatic organisms as a source of food. It also includes interventions in the rearing process to enhance population of aquatic species. Higher consumption owing to rising world population has led to the disintegration of certain marine populations in aquatic ecosystems. A workable understanding of production systems is essential for sustaining a successful practice of aquaculture. Studies in aquaculture production systems explore techniques of mariculture and integrated multitrophic aquaculture practices. This book is a compilation of chapters that discuss the most vital concepts and emerging trends in the field of aquaculture production systems. It also attempts to present theories and studies in this field in a lucid and comprehensible manner. This book will be useful to marine biologists, ecologists and other professionals working in this field. It will also serve as a resource guide for students associated with this field.
