Freshwater Aquaculture – the study of breeding, rearing and commercialization of organisms, fish in particular, which inhabit in fresh water. Even though there remains some fragmentary information regarding the history of development of aquaculture in India but those seem to be far from being complete. In the present communication, the same has been given elaborately. The book concentrates on the culture technology of commercially important fresh water fishes.

Various types of culture techniques including Aquaponics, Bioflocs, Recirculatory Aquaculture Systems (RAS) apart from the conventional Cage culture, Pen culture, Integration of fish culture with other crops viz. paddy, vegetables, dairy, piggery, poultry etc. have been dispensed in detail.

Note: T&F does not sell or distribute the Hardback in India, Pakistan, Nepal, Bhutan, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka.

About the Author

Biplab Kumar Bandyopadhyay is a well-known fishery scientist who obtained his Doctoral degree from the University of Calcutta under the guidance of Prof. Naresh Chandra Datta, Department of Zoology, University of Calcutta. His remarkable work is on the use of different micro- and macronutrients, organic and bio fertilizers, nutritional supplements and more so the disease abatement of fishes, which deserve special mention. Proper aquaculture management practices are his special area of interest.

Dr. Bandyopadhyay is probably the first to use different types of agro-chemicals in aquaculture practices to promote sustainable growth and prevent various types of fish diseases which very often create tremendous financial losses to the farmers, at least in the states like West Bengal, Odisha, Jharkhand, Bihar, Assam and Tripura.
