Important Facts in fisheries
We review piloted co-culture experiments of the sea cucumber Holothuria scabra with different seaweed species in existing lagoon-based seaweed farms in Tanzania during 2011-2014. Key questions were whether stocking densities would influence growth rates of both species, and whether deposit feeders would modify organic components in the sediments. From a social perspective, we investigate if local people are readily willing to become involved in sea cucumber farming as an optional livelihood. by Rusizoka Godfrey Fabiani 1
