Introduction to Fisheries and Aquaculture  Technologies


       08.  Expected outcome                a.   The  technology  could  easily  be adopted  as a
                                                homestead  enterprise by the urban people who have
                                                 no earthen ponds.
                                            b.  Nutritional  requirement  can partially  be fulfilled
                                                through culturing this short cycled high yielding fish
                                                 species.
                                            c.  Household income can be increased.
                                            d.  It can  create  self-employment  opportunity  for
                                                unemployed youth Iwomenlhousewives.
       09.  Recommendations                 a.  Technological  know  how  of farmers  should  be
                                                 improved through training and demonstration.
                                            b.  Private  hatchery  owners  should  be involved  to
                                                produce this seed to meet up the demand of fry and
                                                 fingerlings.

       01.  Contact division/person/unit        Freshwater  Station,  Bangladesh  Fisheries  Research
                                                Institute, Mymensingh.
       02.  Location of application              Seasonal small ponds and. ditches.
       03.  Key characteristics of the      a.   Short cycle and very tasty fish.
            technology                      b.  Cultivable in both seasonal and other shallow ponds.
                                            c.  Conservation & rehabilitation of the endangered fish.
       04.  Production guidelines           a.  April-August is the best time for induced breeding.
                                            b.   Stocking of brood fish @ 10,000-12,000 /ha.
                                            c.   Supplementary  feed @ 4 to 5% body weight of fish is
                                                to be given 2 to 3 months prior to breeding.
                                            d.  Collection  of matured  brood fish on the basis of
                                                secondary   sexual  character  &  injection  of
                                                recommended hormone dose.
                                            e.  Fertilization,  hatching  and rearing of spawn in the
                                                indoor hatchery facilities.
       05.  Risk involvement and            a.  Proper management  during rearing is highly essential
            management in adopting the          to avoid disease and mortality.
            technology                      b.  Vigil against theft offish is necessary.
       06.  Impact of environment               It will help in conservation of biodiversity".
       07.  Procedure of transfer           a.  Training.
