Experiences related to culture, broodstock management, identifying plans, and technological reconversion strategies are presented; as well as evidence of acclimatization in lake systems; additionally, there is a study on the expectations and use of tilapia skin among the chapters that will be of great interest to improve the opportunities for use of this singular resource.

Also included is this book is an interesting and deep analysis on the possible competitive relations of tilapia resources, versus other fish species that emerge with extensive aquacultural expectations.
