Soil pH Importance in Agriculture
In fact, one of the most important parameters to calculate before growing a specific plant in a specific soil is the PH value
How decomposition of organic matter impacts aquaculture ponds
In aquaculture, organic matter is applied to ponds directly in manures (animal dung, grass and agricultural waste) and feed
How to Achieve Good Water Quality Management in Aquaculture
Water quality is the most important factor affecting fish health and performance in aquaculture production systems
Water Quality in Aquaculture
In the Cuyahoga, dissolved oxygen levels in one study of fourteen sites ranged from 1.5 to 90 percent saturation, with an average of 13.2 percent. 100 percent
Acute Hepatopancreatic Necrosis Disease Aetiology Epidemiology Diagnosis Prevention
Acute hepatopancreatic necrosis disease (AHPND) emerged as a new disease of shrimp in 2010. The disease is sometimes referred to as early mortality syndrome
How to reduce pH in Aquaponics without so much guess work
Where we are the tap water is literally “liquid rock” with high alkalinity coming out the tap at a pH of 8.2 to 8.5 depending on the time of year
Erosion, Sedimentation in Earthen Aquaculture Ponds
Embankments made of heavy clay soils must have adequate side slopes or they will slip.
Turbidity Removal From Pond Waters
Eliminate sources of turbidity in culture ponds and use coagulants only if the turbidity remains.
