How do you differentiate between capture fishing, mariculture and aquaculture?
Capture fishing | Mariculture | Aquaculture |
---|---|---|
It is one of the most common forms of fishing. It is a type of fishing where the fishes are obtained from natural resources like rivers, lakes or seas . | Fish farming or culture fishing in marine waters is called mariculture. Varieties like tuna and prawns are cultivated in this method. | Fish culture done in brackish water where seawater and freshwater mix together is known aquaculture. |
