Barramundi are farmed commercially in Southeast Asia and Australia (Tucker et al. in press). Much research has been done on this important species. For many years, wild barramundi juveniles have been grown out in ponds and cages in Southeast Asia. The first artificial spawning was accomplished in Thailand in 1973, and now most farmed barramundi are from hatcheries. The Australian barramundi industry began during 1983-1985 with research projects in Cairns, followed in 1986 by the establishment of the first commercial Australian hatchery in north Queensland.
