Abstract
This literature review has been written to examine different tilapia farming

practices both in semi-intensive and intensive systems. Extensive culture is not

mentioned since it is not considered to be a real commercial production as the

control over the system is quite limited and even semi-intensive system is being

replaced by intensive system due to technological developments, high demand

and increasing market prices of tilapia. In first chapter, environmental and

nutritional requirements are also mentioned as they are closely correlated and

play a key role in a successful production. The results of some recent studies and

experiments suggest that tilapia has some superiority over other culture fish like

faster growth, ability to utilize different feeds, wide tolerance for high stocking

densities and environmental conditions. In addition to these advantages, tilapia

do very well in integrated culture systems both with aquatic species; carp and

shrimps, also crops like tomato and lettuce as well. As a result, this study is

conducted to prove the advantages of commercial tilapia production covering

economic values.
