Ecopath model

Model Name: China, Guangdong Province, Zhujiang Delta
Year: 1993
Remarks: This paper describes an integrated dike-pond farming system in South China, one with a history that goes back to the mid-fourteenth century. The energy flows through the system, which includes among other components, eight fish species are quantified. The system has a very high throughput and production, caused by high imports of manure and concentrated feeds, together with elephant grass, vegetables and mulberry leaves that are produced on the dikes.
