The tool is accompanied by a training guide in the use and interpretation of the data tool. The tool is applicable in variety of fishery farming systems and can also be utilized by  educational institutes and extension workers to make the data recording practice common. Moreover, to stimulate the creation of sustainable aquaculture jobs, the tool helps to prepare fish farmers and students for more than just the technical aspects of aquaculture but also financial consideration.
