High pr<strong>of</strong>i t margin is possible in oyster<br />

culture as no artifi cial feed is required. The<br />

species mainly depend on natural food<br />

for growth. Seed materials (oyster spats)<br />

are available at BFAR RO2 Oyster Farm in<br />

Buguey, Cagayan.<br />

The seaweed techno-demos being<br />

established by BFAR RO2 serve as<br />

means to showcase feasibility <strong>of</strong><br />

culturing seaweed (gracilaria) in places<br />

other than Buguey, the traditional<br />

supplier <strong>of</strong> such seaweed in region 02.<br />

Methods used are either broadcast,<br />

pen enclosures, or hanging monoline<br />

depending on the suitability <strong>of</strong> the site.<br />

Aquasilvi allows the culture <strong>of</strong> fi sh<br />

<strong>and</strong> other aquatic species in a mangrove<br />

ecosystem without signifi cantly altering<br />

its natural state. Mudcrabs are promoted<br />

for culture in aquasilvi systems given<br />

availability <strong>of</strong> seed materials in the coastal<br />

areas.<br />

Oyster culture using plot hanging method.<br />

Polyculture is the combined culture<br />

<strong>of</strong> various species with stratifi ed <strong>and</strong><br />

complementary feeding habit to maximize<br />

the production potential <strong>of</strong> the water body<br />

by the vertical utilization <strong>of</strong> the fi shpond<br />

<strong>and</strong> the maximum utilization <strong>of</strong> natural<br />

food.<br />

Polyculture takes advantage <strong>of</strong> the<br />

different feeding characteristics <strong>of</strong> the<br />

species to be cultured such that feed<br />

competition is eliminated or minimized.<br />

Optimal stock combination under this<br />

type <strong>of</strong> polyculture is 85% tilapia, 10%<br />

African catfi sh <strong>and</strong> 5% common carp.<br />
