dc.description.abstract | Indian fisheries are witnessing the emergence of inland aquaculture as a promising bio industry and a viable alternative to depleting marine catches for the past few decades. Even though many candidate finfish species were considered for intensive and extensive aquaculture, Pangasius (Pangasianodon hypophthalmus) draws global attention due to its sturdy nature and remarkable growth rate (Singh and Lakra, 2012). In general, the supplementary feed cost accounts for more than 50% of the operational cost of aqua farming and has nearly doubled within a decade (Rana et al., 2009). All these factors prompted farmers to adopt poultry waste fed pangasius farming as a cost-effective way of aquaculture, since poultry waste acts as a nutrient rich lowcost protein source with local availability. | en_US |
