Visits Visit Date Remarks Status
1st Visit Date 09 May, 2022 Increase the water holding capacity of the ponds to reduce disease risks & to reduce the excessive reliance on water exchange,pond water holding capacity has to be increased maintaining water depth at minimum water level of 1.2 meter at the middle. Completed
2nd Visit Date 16 May, 2022 Remove the organic waste from pond bottom: Make sure that the displaced organic waste does not enter the pond again through rain water.If it is difficult to completely remove the black soil, plough when it is wet and let it dry. Completed
3rd Visit Date 23 May, 2022 Physical barriers to prevent crabs, birds and other animals.The objective is to create a forstress like condition at the pond to prevent entry of animals,predators and carriers which could pose disease risk. Completed
4th Visit Date 30 May, 2022 Accurate record keeping helps the fish farmer to learn from past mistakes or errors where by reducing risk, hazards, and costs of production in subsequent culture cycles Completed
5th Visit Date 06 Jun, 2022 Physical barriers to prevent crabs, birds and other animals.The objective is to create a fortress like condition at thevpondvto prevent entry of animals, predators and carrires which could pose disease risk. Completed

Good Practices: It is important that fish farmers keep track of inputs and outputs so that they can easily calculate production costs, sales, and net-income, to evaluate the overall economic performance of the farm venture or enterprise
Bad Practices: With out accurate farm records, a farmer will be unable to tell whether he/she has made profit or loss.
Suggestions Given:
Accurate record keeping helps the fish farmer to learn from past mistakes or errors where by reducing risk, hazards, and costs of production in subsequent culture cycles

Good Practices: Shrimps require a good flow of oxygen in order to survive and grow.And this can only be done with the help of mechanical aerators. These aerators will keep the temperature of the water to its optimal level and maintaining water PH.
Bad Practices: Over Aeration leads to Gas bubble disease
Suggestions Given:
Aerators keep predators away as well as help in keeping the water free from diseases , germs and unwanted weeds. Clean water makes it a great place for the fresh water shrimps to survive and grow faster.

Good Practices: Gypsum ( calcium sulphate) is more soluble than liming materials and can be used to increase the total hardness of water beyond that possible with lime, although it does not neutralize acidity.
Bad Practices: Gypsum works for water clarification by attracting clay particles together to form clumps or what we call floccules.As the clay particles continue to clump they eventually increase in weight and settle to the bottom of the pond of lake.
Suggestions Given:
The low cost and high solubility of gypsum makes it ideal for use in the maintenance of calcium levels in hatchery situations.

Good Practices: Stocking Density: Penaeid Vannamei are amenable to culture at very high stocking densities of up to 150/m2 in pond culture, and even as high asc400/m2 in controlled recirculated tank culture.
Bad Practices: Intensive culture systems require a much higher cdegree of control over environmental parameters, it enables the production of high numbers of shrimp in limited areas, resulting in better productivity per unit area than that of p.monodon
Suggestions Given:
Both p.monodon and p.stylirostris can be aggressive , have high protein requirements, and may be more demanding of high water quality ,making them difficult to culture as intensively as p.vannamei.

Good Practices: Gypsum treatment reduced phytoplankton abundance by lowering dissolved othophosphate concentration through calcium phosphate precipitation.Gypsum also reduced carbonate concentration through calcium carbonate precipitation.
Bad Practices: Dosage: Ponds turbid with suspended clay particles were treated with 250- 500 mg gypsum/L
Suggestions Given:
The ponds were treated with enough gypsum to will equalize hardness and alkalinity.
