Aquaculture sector  will become the  main  player  to  increase  the  production of  fish not  only to fulfill the country's  needs  and  also  export. New species of fish  for  culturing  will  be introduced and  new  breed  will  be  formed by genetics  manipulation. More  advance and economic viable culturing system will  be  introduced  for  upgrading  the aquaculture  management. Aquaculture development c an be  seen by  the  formation of commercial viable big  aquaculture estates  so as to obtain maximum  return  as well  as economics of  scale. Freshwater aquaculture  sector will be fully developed and expected  to contribute significantly  to increase  production as a whole. Land, lakes,  embankments,  ponds,  ex-mining  pools as  well as rivers  which are suitable  will be  fully utilized for the production of marine fish and prawn as well as crabs and cockles. A new dimension will appear  with the introduction of the brackish water/marine culture system which is economically viable in sheltered area like open sea cage culture system.
