All aquaculture stock must be certified disease free before it enters the marine farming environment. Controlling the spread of disease, disease agents, parasites, toxins or contaminants, within the site or from one site to another is achieved through strict bio-security measures. These include controlled harvesting methods, and developing bay-management systems requiring rotation of sites to allow for fallowing and year-class separation. 2, record 2, English, - aquaculture%20stock

Tous les stocks aquacoles doivent être certifiés exempts de maladie avant d'entrer dans une installation d'élevage marine. Le contrôle de la propagation des maladies, des agents pathologiques, des parasites, des toxines ou des contaminants, à l'intérieur du site ou entre deux sites, est assuré grâce à des mesures de biosécurité rigoureuses. Ces dernières consistent notamment en des méthodes de pêche contrôlées et en l'élaboration de systèmes de gestion des baies nécessitant une rotation des sites pour permettre la mise en jachère et la séparation par classe d'âge. 3, record 2, French, - stock%20aquacole

The advantage of the selection method is that it is often considered to be less visually offensive than clear-cuts. Therefore, selective harvesting is frequently favored in areas where recreation or scenic values are important. Selective cuts may also be used to harvest timber from sensitive areas such as steep slopes or buffer strips where it is desirable to maintain permanent tree cover. 4, record 5, English, - selective%20harvesting

People have relied on rainwater harvesting to supply water for household, landscape, livestock, and agricultural uses. Before large, centralized water supply systems were developed, rainwater was collected from a variety of surfaces-most commonly roofs-and stored on site in tanks known as cisterns. With the advent of large, reliable community treatment and distribution systems and more affordable well drilling equipment, rain harvesting systems have been all but forgotten, even though they offer a source of pure, soft, low sodium water. 2, record 8, English, - rainwater%20harvesting
