Madhubani. There are fish lovers everywhere. Be it rearing or eating. The trend of fish farming is increasing in the whole country. It is successful as a business. It is also considered auspicious in Vaastu. People also keep aquariums in their homes.
Due to the subsidy provided by the government, the number of fish traders has increased tremendously. Although fish seeds are sold in three sizes in the market, Jeera, Finger and Big. But the most sold is Jeera size. It seems strange to think how a seed of the size of Jeera becomes a fish weighing 1.5 to 2 kg in no time. But do you know in how many days a fish weighing 1.5 to 2 kg is ready for our consumption? In this news, we will tell you about fish.
The right time and method of sowing seeds
Local 18 talked to big fish businessman Sudhir Sahni on this subject. Sudhir does fish business in a total of 90 acres. He tells that first of all the pond is cleaned and cumin is added. If the pond is dirty then lime can be used. After this, some medicines are also available for fish growth. But it depends on you whether you want to add it or not. Sahni gives strict instructions about adding cumin seeds that if all the cumin is added at once then the strike rate of success becomes very low. That means there will be less fish.
Desi fish is ready in 9 months
Although many species of fish are found in the country, but 3 species are major which are IMC. IMC means Indian Major Carp. It can take 9 months to a year to prepare IMC fish. It takes about six months to prepare foreign fish like Pangas and Senpia. However, everything else also depends on the skill of the fish farmer, how much preparation he has done and in how many days he is able to prepare the fish.
How to do fish farming
Sudhir further explains that whenever fish farmers take a pond on lease, they know that fish can be taken out from this pond only once or hardly twice in a year. So, after putting cumin seeds, he is fully prepared. After a month passes, he can put another seed and clean the water with the help of a net and make the fish agile. Apart from this, the fish also become agile when cattle go into the water. This helps in the rapid development of their body and they become more than 2 kg in a year.
