Question : Brackish water resources are important fish reservoirs but still in inlandwater bodies the yield is not high. So peopole adopt aquaculture. A son persuaded his father, a farmer, to do fish culture in that paddy field and also in a pond near his house to increase the yield. 1. What is meat by brackish water? 2. What can be done to get maximum fish yield from the pond? 3. How son's work is appreciable?

Answer»

Solution :1. Brackish water is water of lesser salinity.
In estuaries and lagoons, fresh and saline wter mix with each other. Such places are important fish reservoirs.
2. Since the natural fish population is limited, aquaculture ca be practiced for increasing the fish yield. Ina pond the fish SEED ca be introduce. This fish seed is in the form of larvaei. It should be selected by considering theappropriate local conditions. The species selected should THRIVE well, grow fast and yield good market price. COMPOSITE fish culture method can also be used. All such practices can give the maximum fish yield from the pond.
3. Son has carried out fish farming in two areas. One is inpaddy, where along with the rice crop the released fish seed too grow. Therefore, along with harvest of rice, the fish or prawns are ready to be harvested. Fish farming in pond also must have fetched good results. Therefore son.s work is appreciable.
