16
Q

An example is intensive fry production combined with extensive on growing.

A

SEMI-INTENSIVE AQUACULTURE

17
Q

The species being farmed are kept at low density and there is minimal input of artificial substances and human intervention.

A

EXTENSIVE AQUACULTURE

18
Q

Investment cost per unit volume farmed will of course also be much higher.

A

INTENSIVE AQUACULTURE

19
Q

Maintenance of optimal growth conditions is necessary

A

INTENSIVE AQUACULTURE

20
Q

A low level of technology and very low investment per unit volume farmed characterized this method.

A

EXTENSIVE AQUACULTURE

21
Q

Enumerate Life stage of the species produced on the farm:

A

-Eggs
-Fry
-Juvenile or ongrowing
-Full Production

22
Q

Types of Farming Technology Used:

A

Closed Production Units
Open Production Units

23
Q

Sea, Tidal Zone and Land are based on what?

A

BASED ON THE LOCATION

24
Q

There are two types under of Land, what are those two?

A

-Gravity Fed
-Pump

25
Q

The water source is at a higher altitude than the farm amd the water can flow by gravity from the source to the farm.

A

GRAVITY FED

26
Q

The source can be at an equal or lower altitude compared to the farm.

A

PUMP

27
Q

Farms can also be classified by how the water supplied to a farm is used. What are those two?

A
  1. Flow-Through Farm
  2. Re-use or Recirculating System
