Modern large-scale shrimp farming is carried out in specially designed pond farms following mainly semi-intensive forms of culture, which have generally proved to be more economical. Such farms usually have a hatchery and nursery and rearing ponds... Ponds in Central and South American shrimp farms are sometimes larger, up to 20 ha in area. 2, record 1, English, - shrimp%20farm

Record number: 3, Textual support number: 1 CONT
Inundated rice fields always have a small population of fish which gain access with the water, and this probably gave rise to the practise of deliberate stocking and harvesting. The trapping of shrimp larvae in fallow rice fields and growing to market size is an old age-old practice and still exists in parts in India. It is believed that rice-field culture was introduced into Southeast Asia from India about 1500 years ago Tamura, 1961). 2, record 3, English, - rice%2Dfish%20culture

Bien implantée à Madagascar, la rizipisciculture consiste à introduire des poissons dans les rizières en eau, modifiées par la création d'un canal latéral, de quelques fosses-refuges, d'une adduction et d'une vidange étanches aux poissons. Ces derniers, carpes communes et tilapias, mis à 20-40 g, sont récoltés en fin de cycle rizicole à 200 g de poids unitaire, ou plus tardivement, si le site permet une prolongation de la période d'inondation de la rizière. 3, record 3, French, - rizipisciculture
