An economic analysis of the modular pond system of milkfish production in the Philippines
(Elsevier, 1989)
In 1980, the annual yield of milkfish ponds in the Philippines was 800 kg/ha while the potential yield is estimated to be 2000 kg/ha. The modular pond system analyzed in this study can largely close the gap between actual ...
The effect of stunting on growth, survival, and net production of milkfish (Chanos chanos Forsskal)
(Elsevier, 1988)
The seasonal abundance of milkfish fry in the Philippines has led to the practice of buying a sufficient supply during the peak season to compensate for the shortage during slack periods. Fry that are not immediately grown ...
Comparison of the silo and broadcast methods of applying organic fertilizer in milkfish, Chanos chanos (Forsskal), ponds
(Elsevier, 1988)
The efficacy of the silo and broadcast methods of applying organic fertilizers in ponds for the production of pond-floor, microbenthic biological complex, a natural food source known as lablab, was tested in 1-ha ponds, ...
Effect of fatty acid composition of broodstock diet on tissue fatty acid patterns and egg fertilization and hatching in pond-reared Penaeus monodon
(Asian Fisheries Society, 1989)
The effect of dietary fatty acid composition on tissue fatty acid patterns and Penaeus monodon was evaluated with the use of 3 practical diets. Diets were formulated to contain the same basal components but with various ...
Studies on the chronic soft-shell syndrome in the tiger prawn, Penaeus monodon Fabricius, from brackishwater ponds
(Elsevier, 1986)
Prawn culture is becoming more widespread in the Philippines. In recent years, prawn production in brackishwater ponds has been adversely affected by a chronic soft-shell syndrome. A field survey of prawn ponds in the ...
The economics of retarding milkfish growth for fingerling production in brackishwater ponds
(Elsevier, 1987)
Two experiments were conducted to measure the economic viability of retarding milkfish growth (stunting) in brackishwater ponds. In the first experiment, 2-month-old fish were reared for 6 months in ponds with initial ...
Survival, growth and production of Penaeus monodon Fabricius at different stocking densities in earthen ponds with flow-through system and supplemental feeding.
(Fisheries Research Society of the Philippines, 1981)
Penaeus monodon juveniles (P<sub>53</sub>-P<sub>54</sub>, 0.45 g) were stocked in 200 m<sup>2</sup> earthen ponds with water exchange rate of 5-10% daily, and reared for 3.5 months. Stocking density levels of 2.5, 5.0, 10 ...
Effect of stocking density and duration on stunting milkfish fingerlings in ponds
(Taylor & Francis, 1986)
The paper discusses the effect of stocking density and holding periods in stunting milkfish fingerlings in brackishwater ponds using twelve units of 144m<sup>2</sup> earthen ponds. With 15, 20, and 25 fingerlings/m<sup>2</sup> ...
Comparison of various water replenishment and fertilization schemes in brackishwater milkfish ponds
(Blackwell Publishing, 1989)
The study was undertaken to determine the optimum combination of the frequency of water replenishment and fertilization that can yield the highest growth, survival, and gross production of milkfish. Results indicated that ...
