Features:
1) It requires less investment.
2) Its installation is easy.
3) Since it covers only a fraction of the pond, the remaining part
can be used in the normal way.
4) It provides opportunity for controlled culture of choice.
5) Inspection of fishes and their feeding is much easier.
6) Treatment of disease is much simple than that of pond culture.
7) In emergencies it can be removed from one place to another.
8) Since the cage is meshed, the fishes inside have less chances of
being attacked by predators.
9) Harvesting is very simple.
10) The number of fish required at a particular time can be
harvested and in this way it helps to maintain the non-seasonal
supply of the fish.
11) It is economical as compared to other methods of fish culture
except fish-culture in running water.
