Sažetak
In the south Adriatic sea region mariculture, is currently limited to traditional cultivation of oysters and mussels, as well as some cage-culture of seabass and sea bream, in the Bay of Mali Ston. The spatial zoning commission of the Dubrovnik-Neretva County, in fact, has identified about thirty suitable rearing sites, with an estimated combined capacity of over 10.000 MT/yr of fish. One strategy for revitalizing Croatian and Dubrovnik-Neretva County mariculture is introduction of new species for cultivation sach as : greater amberjack (Seriola dumerili), dusky grouper (Epinephelus marginatus), golden grouper (Epinephelus costae), red scorpionfisch (Scorpaena scrofa), salema (Sarpa salpa), pink dentex (Dentex gibbosus), maegre (Argyrosomus regius). One important way in which the long-term profitability of the south Adriatic region mariculture sector can be insured is through an aggressive program to evaluate rationally, and to commercialize rapidly, new species for cultivation.
