Integrating Agriculture and Aquaculture

Aquaculture is the cultivation and harvesting of marine organisms under controlled conditions for commercial purposes. This book on integrated agriculture and aquaculture talks about landscape and cultivation practices that serve to improve aquaculture and marine harvesting. Biological pest control mechanisms are another area of great importance for maintaining healthy yield. Farming of aquatic fish is sometimes complemented with other organisms such as crustaceans, molluscs and algae. It picks up individual branches and explains their need and contribution in the context of a growing economy. This book brings forth some of the most innovative concepts and elucidates the unexplored aspects of aquaculture. It will serve as a valuable source of reference for graduate and post graduate students.
