What's up on carp?

Bighead carp is preferred among other species for culture because of its fast growth and high survival rate. Pen and cage culture of carps in Laguna de Bay is sustained by the availability of juveniles as a result of improved hatchery technology. Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center and the Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources have been conducting research programs to enhance the carp culture industry in the country.
