Culture of the 'aquatic chicken': present concerns and future prospects

K Coward et al. Biologist (London). 2001 Feb.

Abstract

This is not actually a swimming chicken, but rather a fish that fulfils a similar role for subsistence farmers and can also be farmed on a commercial scale. Like the chicken, the tilapiines are meeting protein needs in an affordable way world-wide. However, present farming strategies are struggling to meet ever-rising consumer demand.
