hi
Large-scale commercial culture of tilapia is limited almost exclusively to the culture of three species: Oreochromis niloticus, O. mossambica and O. aureus. Of the three tilapia species with recognized aquaculture potential, the Nile tilapia, O. niloticus, is by far the most commonly used species in fish farming. In traditioanal pond culture of tilapia, proper environmental conditions are maintained by balancing the inputs of feed with the natural assimilative capacity of the pond. The pond’s natural biological productivity (algae, higher plants, zooplankton and bacteria) serves as a biological filter that converts the wastes through natural biological processes.

Marketing
International trade is growing rapidly, especially between Central American producers (Costa Rica, Ecuador and Honduras) and the United States, and between Asian producers (Taiwan, China, Indonesia and Thailand) and the United States and Japan. You can also target few hotels in the local area.
