Growth assessment of carps with respect to species ratio and boundary planation of trees under freshwater conditions
Research Type
Departmental Research
Experiment Background
The main objective of the pond fish farming is to increase the productivity of water, land and associated resources while contributing to increased food fish production. Fish based integrated farming system enterprises may include crop, livestock, poultry, fish, agroforestry etc. A farm as a unit is to be considered and planned for effective integration of the enterprises to be combined with crop production activity combination of one or more enterprises with cropping. When these components are carefully chosen, planned and executed, gives greater dividends than a single enterprise, especially for small and marginal farmers. Fish farming can be combined with agriculture, animal husbandry and irrigation practices, which can lead to optimization of resources and ultimately resulting into higher production and net profits. Hence, basic guidelines for setting up a fish farm covers the selection of a proper site, of farm type and of fish species to be cultured including fish nutrition, health, reproduction, harvesting, post-harvesting aspects, target quantity per harvest etc.
