Bio floc culture system
Growth performance and hemato-biochemical alteration in pangasius pangasius
The requirement for protein and food resources is the biggest concerns of human nutrition. Present study was conducted to assess the survival, growth potential and hemato-biochemical alterations in Pangasius pangasius under Biofloc culture system. For this purpose, 3000 fish were stocked in three tanks, one tank kept as control and two tanks were kept as treated tanks. Tank 1st was given as Basel diet, while tank 2nd & 3rd was given as probiotics + carbon source (molasses) + Basel diet. Randomly ten samples were selected from each tank at day 45 and 90 to check the fish growth measurements. The experiment was lasted for 90 days.
Saline and Brackish Water Aquaculture
The southern Punjab, Cholistan (Rohi) is one of the largest deserts of the country, which consists of sand dunes, sandy / loamy soil, and saline-sodic clayey soil. The ground water is mostly saline and brackish which is unfit for drinking and Agriculture. The economy of our country is agricultural based. However, Livestock and fisheries also play an important role to strengthen the economy of the country and livelihood. It is important to note that the one of the source of income of inhabitants of desert is livestock which is under threat due to scarcity of drinking water, continued overgrazing and cutting of shrubs and trees for firewood. Unluckily resources and people of Cholistan are always ignored. But now it is a right time to take a right decision for prosperous future of Cholistan.
