Abstract
A survey was conducted to assess the post stocking pond management status of 200 fish farmers in Bakerganj, Gaurnadi, Barisal Sadar and Mehendiganj upazila under Barisal district from May to November, 2013. Data were collected through the use of well-structured questionnaire and Focus Group Discussions (FGD) from the selected area. About 98% of farmers were using the hatchery-produced fries but only 2% were using the natural fries. Most of the fish farmers directly stocked the fishes in grow out pond (63%), 12% stocked firstly at a nursery pond and 25% stocked in the hapa before releasing of the fry in the grow-out pond. Tilapia (49%) was found as the most cultured fish species in the area. The highest stocking density (69%) in the study area was found 100 to 200 fry/decimal and the highest (81%) fish farmers stocked the fingerlings size were from 0.5 to 2.0 cm. About 26% of farmers used balance feed but 74% farmer used the supplementary feed because of financial crisis. In case of any culture and disease related problem mainly they went to the Government fisheries officers (31%) and Drug and chemicals shopkeeper/sales persons (37%). As fish culture is the potential and profitable business in the country, it is therefore essential to provide the necessary training facilities with institutional and organizational supports, credit facilities and extension services for the proper management of the pond after stocking of fish fry as well as the sustainable fish production.
