Some of basics soil reactions in aquaculture pond.

Hello everyone:
    I am glad to express my thank to all people who reads my blog across the world. For the last few weeks I saw some of the people from Ecuador,Tanzania reads most. These are the countries have very good infrastructure for aquaculture (growing). 
       Any people can contact me regarding guidance on fish,shrimp farming, any online sessions. I am always ready to serve my knowledge to farmers. You can contact by mail or WhatsApp. Thank you. 

    Today we will see about some of soil reactions on shrimp farming. 

Ageing of pond should have an impact on survival and growth of shrimp. 

Things need to consider:
1.Preparation of ageing ponds. 
2.Treatments. 
3.Stocking density. 
4.Checking soil pH, organic carbon, redox potential. 

- pH of the soil affects minerals solubility.
- Before get to stocking, it is better to conditions the soil. 
- Leaching is a important process in soil preparation. 
- Acidic soils have some of the common ions (Al, Fe) . 
- Sodium ions have high exchangeble capacity than other ions. 
- It is important to replace excess sodium ions which is present in the pond soil. 
- Decomposition of organic matter pays way for the soil fertility and releasing phosphorus and potassium. 
- Important compounds such as sulphur, phosphorus, nitrogen, carbon presents in different forms in soil. 
- Soil organic matter gives plasticity to soil which prevents turbidity and seepage of water. 
- Soil organic matter gives cohesion and increasing water holding capacity. 
- Soil Redox potential indicates the soil organic matter of your pond. 


Thank you.

Better clarification about pH and Alkalinity in shrimp pond. Water quality series -3

  Hello everyone:     Most of us confused between pH and alkalinity in the pond ecosystem. If there is low concentration of pH and alkalinity means we can increase but if there is high pH and alkalinity means it is some difficult to reduce .           pH and Alkalinity are related but different. pH and Alkalinity:       If you have shrimp pond then you definitely know the variance of pH in the water. You want to know means , you can check 4 to 5 times in a day. you must saw the pH fluctuations. Yes, pH is very important factor determines the shrimp culture. based on the level of pH you can tell , what happening in your shrimp pond.       Fluctuations of pH is mainly determined by amount of carbon dioxide in your pond water. Other factors like soil pH, soil deposits like calcium carbonate, planktons density also determines the changes of pH in your water.   pH :       I am also tell the same meaning, pH is determined by hydrogen ion concentration.             pH low - high hydrogen

How copepods develops in shrimp pond after applying fermented juice?

Image
Hello everyone:      Are you know which is shrimp favourite food in zooplanktons? Yes, it is copepods. Shrimp eats more copepods which is present in the pond.       In last blog, I told about the reactions and preparation of fermented juice using organic substrates. It is the continuation of that blog. In this I will tell about how zooplanktons(especially copepods) developed after fermented juice application. Main purpose of fermented juice in shrimp pond:      Increase the beneficial microbial colonies by fermentation and produce various substances which is beneficial for beneficial organism growth. After application, it will forms the microbial proteins in the water column. It serve as a natural food for shrimp at stocking time.     Initially, we have to give some natural live feeds because it increases the strength and natural immune system of the Shrimp. So only we prepared for development of zooplanktons in the pond.   What are planktons?         Phytoplankton and Zoo

How temperature plays major role in shrimp farming.(Water quality series - 1)

Hello everyone:      Today we will see the importance of temperature in shrimp culture. What are the problems will come due to the temperature variance in shrimp pond.      Most of the persons who doing shrimp farm must know about the things what happened during temperature Change.       Shrimp grows very fastly, but we can't culture throughout the year. Why?     If you are doing intensive or super intensive system means no problem. But you are doing the culture of shrimp on outside means you have to fix the culture days based on climate change(keep in mind). Ok let's jump into topic. Temperature :       Most of the farmers doing in outer earthern pond. So in these situations, temperature plays important role in growth of our shrimp. We all focus only on ammonia, nitrite, H2S, but indirectly temperature plays very crucial role.         Heat is produced in water due to sunlight. Because sunlight have some energy in the form of photons , when it comes to contact with
