Définition
Sens commun
All activities related to marine plant cultivation and breeding of marine animals. The words "aquiculture" and even "mariculture" once used are regarded as obsolete synonyms. We distinguish inland aquaculture, which means all fish farming activities in freshwater and marine aquaculture, which means all sea farming activities in sea water. There are four types: shellfish culture (shellfish breeding)), pisciculture (fish farming), the breeding of crustaceans and seaweed (algae culture).
