Abstract

Extensive fish farming usually refers to fish farming conducted in medium- to large-sized ponds or water bodies; the fish production relies merely on the natural productivity of the water which is only slightly or moderately enhanced. Externally supplied inputs are limited; costs are kept low; capital investment is restricted; the quantity of fish produced per unit area is low. In brief, the control over the production factors is kept low. The return on labour is high.
