What 03.2 includes

• This group includes aquaculture (or livestock aquaculture), that is to say, the process of production by culturing or farming (including harvesting) of aquatic organisms (e.g. fish, molluscs, crustaceans, aquatic plants, amphibians) using techniques designed to to increase the production of the organisms in question beyond the natural capacity of the environment (for example-seeding, regular, feeding, protection from predators). Aquaculture also includes individual ownership, collective or national of the individual organisms all throughout the rearing phase or culture, until the harvest included.
• The terms of crops or livestock are referring here to the captive breeding of young subjects or adults.
