In addition to the small-scale aquaculture which is the common type of aquaculture in Malawi, there are two middle\/large-scale fish farms that have started in 2004 as shown in the two photos. The first is a cage farm in Lake Malawi while the second is a land-based semi-intensive pond culture in the Lower Shire valley. Oreochromis<\/em> karongae<\/em> is farmed in the cage farm while common carp and Oreochromis mossambicus<\/em> are farmed in the land-based farm. The commercial aquaculture is estimated to produce by more than 3000 tons of fish per year.<\/span><\/p>\n
