Abstract

Pen culture is defined as the raising of fish in a volume of water enclosed on all sides except the bottom, permitting the free circulation of water at least from one side. The bottom of the water body forms the bottom of the pen. This system can be considered a hybrid between pond culture and cage culture. They are usually constructed along the shallow regions of potential water bodies including the banks of the lakes as well as reservoirs.
