A preliminary study on the feasibility of using fenced brushparks for fish production in Lake Chilwa, Malawi
(2003)Type: Journal ArticleA study to investigate the feasibility of using fenced brushparks for fish ranching in Lake Chilwa was conducted for five months at the Kachulu Harbor. In a water depth of 1.4 m enclosures constructed from bamboo sticks ... -
An organic matter and nitrogen dynamics model for the ecological analysis of integrated aquaculture/agriculture systems: II model evaluation and application
(2002)Type: Journal ArticleThe performance of a model developed to simulate organic matter and nitrogen dynamics in integrated aquaculture/agriculture systems was evaluated using sensitivity analysis and model verification procedures with data from ... -
From researcher to farmer: partnerships in integrated aquaculture-agriculture systems in Malawi and Cameroon
(2011)Type: Journal ArticleThe potential for integrating aquaculture with agriculture has been widely recognized as a means of improving the use of inputs, diversifying output and economic opportunity, and enabling smallholder producers to maintain ... -
Investigations on the use of on-farm resources as pond inputs to culture Tilapia rendalli and Oreochromis shiranus on smallholder farms in rural Malawi
(1993)Type: Journal ArticleResources available on the majority of smallholder fish farms in the Zomba District of Malawi were tested toincrease smallholder aquaculture production currently limited by a lack of inputs. -
Potential for the development of aquaculture in Africa
(2003)Type: Journal ArticleAquaculture production in Africa has remained low despite the huge potential that exists on the continent. In order for this potential to be realized, it is necessary to refocus the direction of aquaculture development. ... -
Reproductive biology and breeding of Barbus paludinosus and B. trimaculatus (Teleostei: Cyprinidae) in Lake Chilwa, Malawi: implications for fisheries management
(2009)Type: Journal ArticleBarbus paludinosus and Barbus trimaculatus were sampled in Lake Chilwa and the Mnembo River mouth between February 2004 and January 2005, using nets equivalent to those used commercially, to analyse their reproductive ... -
Simulation of optimal harvesting strategies for small-scale mixed-sex tilapia (Oreochromis shiranus Boulenger 1896) ponds using a bio-economic model
(2007)Type: Journal ArticleA cohort-based bio-economic biomass growth and economic model, validated with data from experiments conducted in Malawi, was used to identify an optimal harvesting strategy for mixed-sex tilapia ponds.Three harvesting ... -
Ten-year simulations of organic matter concentrations in tropical aquaculture ponds using the multiple pool modeling approach
(2001)Type: Journal ArticleThe accumulation rate of organic matter has been used to develop guidelines on sediment management in tropical aquaculture ponds. However, there is conflicting evidence as to the rate of sediment organic matter accumulation ...
