		The Ecuadorian province of El Oro is taken as an example of the first problem, while the Philippines have provided the subject matter for the second problem.
		If we extrapolate this situation to the Ecuadorian mangals, with due caution, and assuming that the population densities should be similar, we find for the El Oro province (22 500 ha of mangal) a maximum of 225 million resident population of postlarvae and juveniles.
		If this province would exploit the 10 000 ha of existing concessions at the densities mentioned above, it would require 700 million postlarvae to stock the ponds, a figure that possibly could not be met by the existing population which could provide seed for about 3 200 ha.
