"Containment structure" means cage support systems, net cages, bag cages, tanks, troughs, raceways, natural or man made ponds, trays or other structures used to contain aquatic plants or fish for purposes of aquaculture. 1, record 1, English, - culture%20gear
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 2 OBS
The term "containment structure" is used most specifically in the environmental domain, from the perspective that such structures prevent the cultivated species from escaping and competing with wild ones in their natural habitat. As such, it is often used in the context of salmon culture, for example, but not as often in scallop culture. 1, record 1, English, - culture%20gear

[Le terme] «structure de retenue» [...] semble surtout utilisé dans le domaine de l'environnement, de la perspective que ces structures empêchent les espèces cultivées de s'échapper et de faire concurrence aux espèces sauvages dans leur habitat naturel. On l'observe notamment beaucoup en salmoniculture, mais relativement peu en pectiniculture. 1, record 1, French, - structure%20d%27%C3%A9levage
