Culture management of small indigenous species

The leaflet ‘Culture Management of Small Indigenous Species’ has been developed under the CGIAR Initiative on Asian Mega-Deltas. This informative guide offers step-by-step protocols for culture management of small indigenous species (SIS) fish, such as mola, punti, and tengara, in polyculture with carp in grow-out ponds. It covers key aspects of grow-out management, including pre-stocking, stocking, and post-stocking practices to ensure optimal conditions for fish production. The leaflet also emphasizes the importance of proper harvesting and marketing techniques to maximize income and productivity. By following these protocols, farmers can adopt nutrition-sensitive aquaculture practices, contributing to the expansion of sustainable fish farming and strengthening food security initiatives in the region.
