Excerpt

Plans to set up a mariculture park in Central Mindanao have gained ground for the propagation and production of high-value fish stocks, a regional fisheries official here said. Sani D. Macabalang, regional director of the Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources (BFAR), said the mariculture park will host fish cages to produce milkfish (bangus), rabbit fish (danggit), trevally (talakitok) and grouper (Lapu-Lapu), besides promoting seaweed and mussel farming.
