Title Observations on the effect of fertilizer and feed
applications on the growth of Penaeus indicus
H. Milne Edwards
 
Creator Sivakami, S
 
Subject Prawn and Prawn fisheries
 
Description Growth of Penaeus indicus in relation to phosphate fertilizer and feed applications was studied in
marine microcosms. The 1st dose of fertilizer did not appear to have any bearing on Chlorophyll-a and
zooplankton production. An increase in sediment phosphate was obvious following addition of 1st dose
of fertilizer in the treated pools. Shrimp production was the highest in pools treated with fertilizer and
feed and was the lowest in the control. Difference in shrimp growth among various treatments was
highly significant except between control and the pools treated with feed alone.
