dc.descriptionBangladesh is one of the world’s leading fish producing countries, where aquaculture contributes 56.44 percent to total fish production. In last 10 years average growth performance of this sector has increased by almost 5.43 percent and government is trying to sustain this growth performance. The annual fish production of Bangladesh in 2016-17 has been recorded as 41.34 lakh MT against a demand of 40.50 lakh MT in 2016-17. Over the last three decades, the fish production in Bangladesh has increased more than five times (7.54 MT in 1983- 84 to 41.34 lakh MT in 2016-17) (DoF, 2017). This sector is contributing significantly in food security through proving largest portion of quality animal protein; almost 60 percent animal protein comes from fish. It contributes 3.61 percent to our national GDP and around one-fourth (24.41 percent) to the agricultural GDP. Development in the aquaculture sector is one of the reasons for the increase in fish production over the last few decades.en_US
dc.description.abstractThe study was carried out from November 2017 to April 2018 in eight upazilas of Dinajpur district to observe the present status of pabda (Ompok pabda) culture. A total of 60 farmers were selected randomly and interviewed to analyze the present status of inputs used and production of the culture. According to the present study ages of most of the farmers (48.3%) were between 36 and 50 years. Educational qualification found highest at secondary level (45%). Formal training was received by most of the farmers (71.67%). Average farm size was 0.14 hectare. Liming was done at 275.0 ± 3.91 kg/ha during pond preparation. Both organic and inorganic fertilizers were used at a rate of 1900.0 ± 121.34 (cow dung), 60.0 ± 2.86 (urea) and 37.0 ± 2.08 (TSP). All the farmers practiced polyculture of pabda. A total of 13 different fish species was found under polyculture system in the study area. The highest stocking density (18000 ± 1866 Nos/ha) was found for pabda. Supplementary feeds were used by all the farmers and most commonly used commercial feed for pabda were lily, aftab, mega, quality and nourish feeds in pabda polyculture. The average production from three different polyculture practice for pabda was found to be 3,176 ± 55 kg/ha (carp-pabda-gulsha), 3423± 88 kg/ha (carp-pabda-tilapia) and 3596 ± 65 kg/ha (carp-pabda). Overall, the study indicated that the pabda polyculture is a promising option in the study area.en_US
