    Four types of green manure were used in the polyculture ponds with silver carp and bighead carp as the main species. Direct application of green manure resulted in a higher fish production ranging from 19.59 to 25.33 kg/ha/day. Sudan grass was best among four types of green manure.

    Fish yields and ratios of naturally occurring stable carbon isotopes, 13C: 12C (reported as ä C) from 1 mu (670 m2) and 5 mu (3330 m2) ponds were measured. The ponds received daily inputs of green and animal manures as the sole organic inputs. Fish yields exceeding 40 kg/ha per day were attained in both the small and large ponds. ä C data indicated a strong contribution of the fresh fluid pig manure to growth of the two filter-feeding species, silver and bighead carp. Two grass-eating species, g rass carp and Wuchang fish (Megalobrama amblyscephola), had significantly different ä C values, indicating partially separate food sources for each of these two species.
