Algaculture
Definition: Algaculture is a form of aquaculture involving the farming of species of algae .
The majority of algae that are intentionally cultivated fall into the category of microalgae (also referred to as phytoplankton , microphytes , or planktonic algae ). Macroalgae , commonly known as seaweed , also have many commercial and industrial uses, but due to their size and the specific requirements of the environment in which they need to grow, they do not lend themselves as readily to cultivation (this may change, however, with the advent of newer seaweed cultivators, which are basically algae scrubbers using upflowing air bubbles in small containers).
Spanish Equivalent: Cultivo de Algas
Grammatical Information: Noun
Example: 1) Algaculture will be of great help to fishermen who depend on uncertain catch from the sea as it adds to the family income.

Cage Farming Industry
Etymology: Cage farming began in Southeast Asia, although it is thought to be of comparatively recent origin (Ling, 1977). It seems to have developed independently in at least two countries. According to Pantalu (1979), the oldest records of cage culture come from Kampuchea where fishermen in and around the Great Lake region would keep Clarias spp. catfishes and other commercial fishes in bamboo or rattan cages and baskets until ready to transport to market. In captivity, the fishes were fed kitchen scraps and were found to grow readily. This traditional method of culture has been practiced since the end of the last century, and is now widespread throughout the lower Mekong area of the country (Ling, 1977). From here it has spread in recent year to Viet Nam, Thailand and other Indo-Chinese countries.
Definition: Fish farming in cages is a method of producing fish in closed containers at the bottom and on all sides, built of materials that keep the fish inside while allowing water exchange and the removal of waste water around.

Enclosures for cage aquaculture are often located in waters that are utilized for other purposes, or that are populated by species that are not cultivated.
2) El cultivo en jaulas se diferencia de la acuicultura abierta en un aspecto importante: En jaula de cría los peces están contenidos en un recinto artificial que se coloca en el agua. Vallas de la acuicultura en jaulas a menudo se encuentran en las aguas que se utilizan para otros fines, o que están pobladas por especies que no se cultivan.

In the late 1980s, a number of large land- based farms were to built produce salmon. However, only a few remained in production in the 1990s. The main reasons were excessive investment in the facilities and falling salmon prices following a phenomenal growth of the industry in many count.
