Book Description
Bachelor Thesis from the year 2020 in the subject Biology - Miscellaneous, , language: English, abstract: Carp polyculture is the most common, popular, and successful aquaculture system in Nepal. Including mono-sex Nile tilapia in carp polyculture could enhance fish productivity. This present LEE work was conducted at the Fish hatchery complex of Fisheries Program, Agriculture and Forestry University, Rampur, Chitwan, in a cemented tank of area 25 m2 for 26 days to study the carp and mono-sex Nile tilapia in a polyculture system. The pond was fertilized using urea and DAP at the rate of 4,7 g/m2/week and 3.5 g/m2/week respectively. Fishes except Grass carp were fed twice daily with the pellet made from mustard oil cake and rice bran mixed at a 1:1 ratio at the rate of 5% BW. Grass carp were fed with duckweed at a rate of 50% BW twice a day from 7:30 am to 8 am and 1:30 pm to 2 pm. Water quality parameters i.e., water temperature, transparency, water depth, dissolved oxygen, and pH and were monitored daily while total alkalinity was monitored weekly. Sampling of fish was done fortnightly to check fish growth and adjust feed quantity. All the water quality parameters were within the optimal range of fish production except for DO which was very high during the afternoon. The extrapolated GFY and NFY were 14.5 t/ha/yr and 9.6 t/ha/yr, respectively. The overall survival of fish was 87% and AFCR was 1.4. The total variable cost and the production cost was NRs. 220/kg. Fishes were transferred to the Aquaculture farm, assuming the selling rate NRs. 300/kg. This makes the total gross return was of NRs. 875, making a total net profit of NRs. 327. The B: C ratio was 1.59. From this LEE work, it was concluded that carp and mono-sex Nile tilapia polyculture is a reliable and profitable venture to carry out.

Tilapias: Biology and Exploitation
Author: M.C.M Beveridge
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 9401140081
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 517
Book Description
Referred to in the Bible, pictured on the wall-friezes of ancient Egyptian tombs, and a subject of fascination for generations of scientists, the tilapias (Cichlidae: Tilapiini) have featured in the diet and culture of humankind for thousands of years. The present century has seen their spread from Africa throughout the tropics and sub-tropics, largely for food and fisheries purposes. This book attempts to pull together our knowledge of this important group - their biology and fisheries and aquaculture - in a single volume, something that has not been done comprehensively for nearly two decades. A succession of chapters by acknowledged authorities covers evolution, phylogenetic relationships and biogeography, reproductive biology, mating systems and parental care, diet, feeding and digestive physiology, environmental physiology and energetics, the role of tilapias in ecosystems, population dynamics and management, genetics, seed production, nutrition, farming, economics and marketing. The book is aimed at biologists, fisheries scientists, aquaculturists, and all interested in aquatic ecology.

A Retrospective Review of Carp Polyculture in Nepal
Author: Saurav Lamichhane
Publisher: GRIN Verlag
ISBN: 3346410293
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 10
Book Description
Academic Paper from the year 2021 in the subject Agrarian Studies, grade: 3.84, , language: English, abstract: This paper is a retrospective review of Carp Polyculture in Nepal. Polyculture is an art and science of growing two or more compatible fish species in a pond to maximize production by taking advantage of different spatial distribution and feeding habits. Polyculture concepts rely on the complete utilization of various spatial niches and trophic of a pond to acquire a maximum production per unit area. Carp polyculture is the most common, popular, and successful aquaculture system in Nepal. Carp polyculture is the major aquaculture system contributing to more than 90% of total aquaculture production in Nepal. In 2018/19, total fish production, aquaculture, and productivity were 91,832 t, 70,832 t, and 4.92 t/ha, respectively, which is insufficient to fulfill the growing demand for fish in Nepal. Therefore, it is essential to increase production and productivity.

Dynamics of Pond Aquaculture
Author: Hillary S. Egna
Publisher: CRC Press
ISBN: 1351454064
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 476
Book Description
The culmination of over a decade's worth of research by the Pond Dynamics/Aquaculture Collaborative Research Support Program (CRSP), Dynamics of Pond Aquaculture not only explains the physical, chemical, and biological processes that interact in pond culture systems, but also presents real-world research findings and considers the people who depend on these systems. This book uses data from CRSP field research sites in East Africa, Southeast Asia, Central America, and North America to present a complete picture of the pond system and the environment in which it exists. A thorough study of the principles and practices of aquaculture, the book reflects the state of the art in pond aquaculture and incorporates recent advances that have changed the science in the last decade or so. It provides a thorough review of the many methods, techniques, and ideas that comprise this complex and fascinating area of study.
