Abstract:

The present study was conducted at Krishi Vigyan Kendra, Chitrakoot in earthen pond having the area of 0.017 to 0.041 ha for 120 days to study the effect of different organic manure on water quality and growth performance Labeo rohita. The compost comprises as vermicompost, Pit compost and raw cattle dung that is compared with control having no manure application. All the compost was used at fixed dose @ 5000 Kg/ ha in 24 split doses at 15 days interval and 5000 kg/ha compost applied at 15 days prior to stocking of fish seed for pond preparation. No feed was given to fishes as supplementary feed during the study period. The physio – chemical parameters were studied at monthly basis. The parameter increased significantly in the pond over control. The maximum weight gain of rohu was obtained in vermicompost treated pond that is 90.15 gm with highest survival of fishes (83.4%), 44.2 gm in raw cattle dung treated pond with 68.97% survival and 63.13 survival with 34.35 gm individual weight in pit compost treated pond.
