Also available in:
No results found.This Manual deals with the artificial propagation of warmwater finfishes. Being primarily meant for the extension workers and aquaculture training institutions, it is profusely illustrated. It outlines the basic biological aspects of reproduction in fish and presents the various techniques being used for the collection of fertilized eggs, the artificial fertilization of eggs and the subsequent rearing of larvae and fry. Hatchery and nursery facilities, including equipment and tools, required to set-up a medium-size fish seed production and distribution centre are also included. The various methods of transporting fish eggs, larvae, fry and fingerlings are discussed. The methods of collection and preservation of fish pituitary glands and the dosage of pituitary extracts used for inducing successful spawning in various warmwater fishes are dealt with. Finally, artificial propagation techniques for some commercially important warmwater fishes are presented. -
Book (stand-alone)Manual on catfish hatchery and production. A guide for small to medium scale hatchery and farm producers in Nigeria 2006
Also available in:
No results found.The Aquaculture and Inland Fisheries Project, (AIFP) otherwise known as AnnexII of the Nigerian Special Programme for Food Security (NSPFS) was operational between 18 July 2003 and 30 June 2006 for 35 months. The AIFP’s objectives included compiling an inventory and data base of inland water bodies, fish farms and feed mills, providing technical assistance to private fish farmers and assisting artisanal fisherman in community-based management of inland waters. A good linkage was forged between p rivate fish hatcheries and the stocking of lakes for increased fish production. Efforts were also made towards reduction of post harvest loss of fish through improved fish smoking demonstrations. The project was successful in creating increased public awareness on aquaculture and fisheries bringing them to become national development priorities.
