Aquaculture technologies have been developed at Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center-Aquaculture Department Library (SEAFDEC/AQD) to support sustainable milkfish farming and production. These were the result of the 20 year research on captive breeding and mass fry production. The first step includes rearing of milkfish up to their adulthood stage in floating cages and concrete tanks and until they reached sexual maturity as broodstock.
