Use of reservoirs for fish farming
Abstract
The rapid growth of the world population, as well as climatic variations, have had an impact on the increase in the demand for water, that is why it is necessary to plan, control and manage this essential element for life. Thus, reservoirs constitute a valuable infrastructure, since they serve to store the water that comes mainly from basins fluvial and rains.
These reservoirs represent an important resource to be administered for different uses in a way suitable, for example, for irrigation in the agriculture, flood control, generation of energy for domestic and industrial use, recreation and in some cases and not least, for the improvement of plant and animal ecology, as well as well as the development of fish farming.
