Jai Shankar Singh [3] | Dr. Mohd. Shamsul Haque [2]
Abstract: Loni dam is a unique reservoir of Rewa District. Which is rich in both flora and faunal diversity. Dam water is used in fish culture irrigation along with other nistar activities. In fish culture some important factors control the productivity, they are suitability of cultivated fish species, biological and physico - chemical condition of water body where cultivation is done. Proper maintenance and improvement of that above mention condition of dam productivity will increase significantly. Polyculture is more productive than traditional monoculture. In present study in Loni Dam polyculture/ mixcultuer is used for fish farming. The combination of compatible fish species with supplementary nutrients supply will make proper use of dam food resources. The composition by number Indian major carp (Catla, Rohu, Mrigal) shows maximum productivity as compare to exotic fish carps (Silver carp, Common carp, Grass carp), in the study period.
