Suitability of different fish species for cultivation in integrated floating cage aquageoponics system (IFCAS) in Bangladesh
Farmer participatory action research was performed to assess production performance of tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) and Vietnamese perch (Anabas testudineus) in monoculture and polyculture systems via integrated floating cage aquageoponics system in Bangladesh. The term aquageoponics is the combi...
