A fish farmer was rowing his canoe to a floating fish cage in the middle of the salt-water reservoir in Pusong, Lhokseumawe city, Aceh. The fish farmer looks funny, he wears a helmet when rowing the canoe, in fact it's a head protector when riding a motorcycle.

Lhokseumawe's cultivation fishery business is traditionally managed, work on personal initiative based on experience. The floating fish cage looks very simple, built of bamboo and wooden construction, and a small hut is in the center.
