Here's a new technology that can prove viable and profitable for people in coastal areas. Called "Agri-nipa-aquaculture technology," it combines nipa (and palm) and agricultural crops with fish production, variations of aquasilviculture. The study was done by S. R. Baconguis of the Los Baños-based Department of Environment and Natural Resources-Ecosystems Research and Development Bureau (DENR-ERDB) in a one-hectare nipa-dominated wetland in Puerto Galera, Oriental Mindoro.
