Abstract:
In comparison to the traditional earthen pond fish farming, cage fish culture
is a new fish farming practice in Uganda. Unlike pond fish farming, cage fish
culture relies on artificial structures (i.e. the cages) of various sizes that are
suspended in a water body such as a lake, river or reservoir. Cage culture is
practiced in many countries around the world, and in Africa, it is practiced in
many countries around the world, and in Africa, it is practiced in Egypt and
Zimbabwe. Cage culture has great potential to rapidly transform fish farming
in Uganda to commercial scales.
