Polyculture of milkfish (Chanos chanos) and mud crab (Scylla serrata) at two stocking densities

Melchor M. Lijauco, Oscar Q. Prospero, Eduard M. Rodriguez

Abstract

Mud crabs (Scylla serrata) were cultured singly and in combination with milkfish (Chanos chanos) to compare growth, survival and production rates. Net production of crab was higher in polyculture than monoculture, but the reverse was observed for milkfish.
