Answer:

Piscicultureis breeding,rearing and transplantation of fish by artificial means. It plays an important role in the economy of India. It helps in augmenting food supply, generating employment, raising nutritional level and earning valuable foreign exchange.

Apiculture or beekeeping is the practice of maintaining honeybee colonies, usually in hives.This could be for collecting honey and beeswax, or for pollinating crops, or for the purpose of selling bees to other beekeepers. About 85 per cent crops plants are cross-pollinated, and colonies of honeybees, placed in the field when the crop is in flowering stage, can set about the needed pollination; abundance of pollinators helps in early setting of seeds, resulting in early and a more uniform crop yield.

Explanation:

Pisciculture is the culturing of fish in tanks or enclosures (fish ponds) to obtain fish products as a food source. The technique dates back to many centuries. The types of fish produced in pisciculture include cod, carp, salmon, catfish, and tilapia. Similar to aquaculture, pisciculture also produces commercially valuable fish products.

Pisciculture is the fastest growing area of animal food production in the world. The demand for fish and fish proteins increases rapidly. Hence, wild fisheries are at a state of overfishing. At present, more than 50% of fish consumed globally are raised through pisciculture. The fish ponds or aquafarms are mesh cages submerged in natural or artificially constructed water bodies. Furthermore, it is possible to conduct pisciculture in both fresh water and salt water.
