Stocking details

·      All the fishes are stocked simultaneously.

·      A pond having average water depth of 1.5-2.0 m, may be stocked with 10,000- 12,000 fingerlings/ha.

·      Fish fry may be stocked @ 16,000 to 18,000 / ha with supplementary feeding and management.

·      For predator free pond and small size manageable pond advanced fry (30-40 mm) will give better result.

·      For semi-intensive carp culture, stocking with 5000- 10000 fingerling per hectare in grow out ponds.

·      The seasonal ponds (ponds which water retain for 6 – 8 months) stocked with bigger fingerlings or stunted yearlings.
