Cage culture mode is a new culture mode in recent years. It is a large-scale culture mode that mainly uses natural waters, and cage culture is carried out in the same waters. The advantages of this kind of culture are convenient management, fast growth, invulnerability, fast reproduction, difficult escape and easy capture, but its culture cost will be slightly higher. First of all, the source of feed for raising Monopterus albus needs to be purchased, and all aspects such as cage purchase also need capital investment. Secondly, the taste and nutritional value of Monopterus albus cultured in this way will be reduced.

2. Paddy field culture

Rice interplanting technology is a popular farming mode in recent two years, which can also be called wild-like farming mode. Its novelty lies in that it can not only cultivate Monopterus albus, but also has no influence on rice planting, thus improving the economic benefits of farmland to a certain extent. The mode of interplanting Monopterus albus in rice field has many advantages, one of which is that the quality of Monopterus albus is improved and the cost is as high as that of cage culture. However, there are still some shortcomings, such as controlling the dosage when planting rice, otherwise it will affect the growth of Monopterus albus. Secondly, rice field culture must take measures to prevent escape, otherwise it will suffer heavy losses. Finally, rice field Monopterus albus has many enemies and is difficult to manage.

3. Pond culture

Pond culture is the most traditional culture method of Monopterus albus, which mainly uses existing ponds or ponds dug by ourselves for culture. When using this farming model, we should pay attention to the measures to prevent escape, followed by water quality management and disease prevention. Before breeding, the pond needs to be rebuilt. First, build the pond with cement, then pour in a proper amount of soil, disinfect it and inject new water for culture. Second, pay attention to changing water, usually once every half month.

4. Soilless culture

Due to the diseases in traditional pond culture, a new culture mode, soilless culture of Monopterus albus, can also be called greenhouse culture of Monopterus albus. It mainly uses the greenhouse to adjust the temperature, and then uses bricks and cement to build a pool, install a drainage pipe and a water inlet pipe to keep the fluidity of water in the pool and conduct aquaculture. Its advantages are less enemy damage, easy management, less enemy damage and rapid growth. Its disadvantages are large demand for water resources and artificial feeding of feed sources.
