Abstract
Cage culture involves growing fishes in the sea while being enclosed in a net cage which allows free flow of water. It is a production system comprising of a floating frame of varying dimensions and shape, net materials and mooring system, to hold and culture a large number of fishes. In order to make the cage aquaculture economically feasible, it is essential to select proper design, ideal construction material, techniques, suitable mooring and good management practices. Sea cage culture is receiving more attention in the recent years both by researchers and fishermen. Many small or limited resource farmers are looking for alternatives to traditional fishing practices. Cage aquaculture appears to be a rapidly expanding and it offer opportunities even on a small scale.
