Fish culture in undrainable ponds: a manual for extension
This manual deals with the methods of freshwater fish culture in undrainable ponds as practised in India. The manual is primarily meant for extension workers and aquaculture training institutions. It outlines the basic principles of fish culture and the characteristics of undrainable ponds. The systems of composite carp culture and composite carp culture-livestock farming have been described. Methods of improvement of existing ponds and construction of new ponds have been included. The suitable species for culture, procurement of their seed, stocking ratios of various species under composite culture, etc., have been discussed. Pond management, both pre-stocking and post-stocking, including fish health management and management of common hazards have been dealt with.
