Abstract

Milkfish culture depends heavily on availability of fry supply which comes both from the wild and from hatchery production. But supply from the wild has been steadily decreasing through the years even as demand for fry has increased because of the intensification of grow out farming practices. This means that the milkfish hatchery industry must produce fry for grow out production as fast as the demand increases. From 1980 to 1997, aquaculture registered a steady growth rate compared with the commercial and municipal sectors. Milkfish constituted the bulk of aquaculture production contributing 186,000 tons on average to total sectoral production.
