It addresses critical considerations in selecting fish species, emphasizing factors such as water temperature requirements, growth rates, compatibility with plants, and market demand. The article further delves into maintaining optimal fish health, covering topics like water quality management, disease prevention, nutrition, and stress reduction. Additionally, it highlights the significance of proper stocking density and feeding practices for system performance, emphasizing their role in fish growth, nutrient cycling, and system sustainability. The article also provides insights into effective water quality management strategies, offering practical guidance for maintaining optimal conditions in aquaponics systems. Lastly, the article addresses breeding and fry rearing, essential components for sustaining fish populations, offering expert advice on selecting breeding pairs, providing suitable breeding conditions, and managing fry rearing. By incorporating these comprehensive insights, aquaponics practitioners can ensure the well-being of their fish population and optimize the overall performance and productivity of their systems.","PeriodicalId":502645,"journal":{"name":"Ecological Insights","volume":"152 6","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139153887","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"Medicinal Plants of Ethiopia: Conservation, Traditional Knowledge, and Sustainable Use","authors":"Mesfin Woldearegay, Amentie Regassa","doi":"10.59411/721y5z60","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.59411/721y5z60","url":null,"abstract":"Ethiopia, renowned for its remarkable biodiversity, harbors approximately 6,000 species of higher plants, many of which hold significant medicinal value. Traditional medicine plays a crucial role in healthcare, particularly in rural areas where access to modern healthcare is limited. This reliance underscores the importance of preserving indigenous knowledge related to medicinal plants. Home gardens emerge as vital repositories of these valuable plant species, highlighting the need for sustainable conservation strategies. Both in-situ and ex-situ conservation measures, along with home garden cultivation, are essential in safeguarding these invaluable resources. However, the conservation of medicinal plants faces challenges from both natural causes and human-made threats. This paper emphasizes the urgent need for comprehensive conservation efforts that involve collaborative initiatives among local communities, researchers, policymakers, and conservationists. By documenting and preserving indigenous knowledge, we can not only protect the rich biodiversity of Ethiopia but also contribute to the well-being of its people and potential advancements in drug development. This holistic approach ensures the continued availability and sustainable use of medicinal plants, benefiting both the environment and human health.","PeriodicalId":502645,"journal":{"name":"Ecological Insights","volume":"20 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139280094","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
