Water and sediment quality characteristics of medium saline traditional shrimp culture system (bheri)

Abstract: Quality of water in shrimp culture ponds depends on several physical, chemical and biological processes. In this study, the physico-chemical characteristics of water and sediment samples from inlet, pond and outlet of a traditional shrimp culture pond, locally called as bheri, were examined for nine months from March to November 2011. Majority of the physicochemical parameters of bheri were well within the optimum levels. The average BOD values in pond water and outlet water were 2.03 ppm and 2.33 ppm, respect… Show more

“…The DO levels of North 24 Parganas district farms (12.74±2.27 ppm) were significantly higher (P<0.01), possibly due to the provision of aeration facilities. The results of the water quality parameters corroborate the findings of Priyadarsani & Abraham (2016) recorded in a low saline shrimp pond of West Bengal. The ammonia-N levels varied in different farms with a maximum of 1.54 ppm.…”

“…The DO in an extensive pond was significantly lower (p<0.05) during flooding (5.37 mg/L) compared to draining (6.12 mg/L, Table 2). This supports Priyadarsani and Abraham's (2016) claim that oxygen dynamics depend on autotrophic and heterotrophic organisms' balanced production inside the pond system since extensive ponds contained both organisms. Nevertheless, DO in both flooding and draining were acceptable as it is above the minimum level (DENR AO 2016;Boyd 2003).…”
