| Abstract | Tilapia culture was initiated in Honduras in the late 1970's (Teichert-Coddington and Green 1997). In the early years, tilapia production was primarily characterized by small-scale, family operations that were managed either extensively or semi-extensively as a supplemental agricultural activity. However in the last decade, tilapia production in Honduras has grown rapidly because of market expansion for fresh tilapia filets in the United States. Additionally, uncertain prices and disease problems that have struck the shrimp farmers to raise tilapia (Engle 1997a). |
