Abstract
    The recent developments in aquaculture production of fish and shrimp have resulted in increased demands for Artemia cysts and biomass as valuable sources of life food. Solar salt works are suitable biotopes for the integrated exploitation of salt, Artemia and eventually fish or shrimp. Artemia may be present as a natural resource in local saltworks; however in some situations characteristics of the endemic strain might justify the introduction of another Artemia species to increase productivity.
