Excerpt
Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources (BFAR) scientists may have the answer to fish kill threats by employing solar technology that boosts milkfish production in an environment-friendly way. Dr. Westly Rosario, chief of BFAR’s National Integrated Fisheries Technology Development Center (NIFTDC) in this city, said the solar-powered mechanical Aeration System for fishponds and fish cages bangus (milkfish) is all set for inauguration this month. The project is a joint endeavor of BFAR and the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA) titled “Pilot Surveys for Disseminating Small and Medium Enterprises Technologies for Photovoltaic (solar panel) Power Source for Milkfish Production.”
