Feed costs more than 60 per cent of total expenditure on aquaculture practice. The general method adopted to reduce the cost is to develop a diet containing locally available low cost ingredients with marginally high protein content. It has been reported by De Silva and Davy that low cost diets developed in laboratories do not always get translated into practice.

Abstract


Feed costs more than 60 per cent of total expenditure on aquaculture practice. The general method adopted to reduce the cost is to develop a diet containing locally available low cost ingredients with marginally high protein content. It has been reported by De Silva and Davy that low cost diets developed in laboratories do not always get translated into practice.
