Pond culture of sugpo, P. monodon (Fabricius)
Share
Abstract
A resume is presented of the practical considerations involved in establishing a sugpo pond culture operation, as a guide to fish farmers, extension workers and others interested in producing marketable sugpo in the Philippines. In addition to outlining the general biology of P.monodon , information is given for pond preparation, stocking, transfer from nursery pond to rearing pond, rearing, harvesting, processing and transport. A large appendix deals with the control of pests, predators and diseases, fertilisation and supplementary feeding, and incorporates an illustrated manual of operations.
