Explanation:

Today cage culture is receiving more attention by both researchers and commercial producers. Factors such as increasing consumption of fish, declining stocks of wild fishes and poor farm economy has increased interest in fish production in cages.

Many small or limited resource farmers are looking for alternatives to traditional agricultural crops. Aquaculture appears to be a rapidly expanding industry and it offer opportunities even on a small scale.
Cage culture also offers the farmer a chance to utilize existing water resources in which most cases have only limited use for other purposes.

Hence both statements are correct.
