Abstract

With the involvement of women in cage farming activities, the village may have opened up a better avenue for the development of aquaculture as well as social upliftment and equal opportunity. In nearby areas to this activity, empowerment of women through cage culture with pearl spot, GIFT tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus (Linnaeus, 1758)) and red snapper (Lutjanus argentimaculatus (Forsskål 1775)) was earlier reported by Joseph et al. (2016), and for pearl spot cage culture by Kappen et al. (2016)
