Question

How can the fish production be increased?

Answer 1

1. Use hatcheries and improved methods of breeding, hatching and rearing young fish.
2. Keep farm water clean and regularly monitor oxygen, carbon dioxide and pH levels.
3. Use composite fish culture, in which several species with different feeding habits are raised together in one pond, reducing competition for food.
4. Integrate fish culture with agriculture, for example through paddy-cum-fish culture.
