Resumen
Descripción
The objective of the described project is to investigate the operation of a stabilization pond driven, two trophic level fishpond system involving phytoplankton produced in high rate pond and phytophagous fish reared in the 16 associated fishponds. The yield and feeding efficiencies of the fish as a function of stocking density and algal feeding rate will be studied. The major objective is to quantify and optimize fish productivity and to determine the optimal land ratio between stabilization an d fishponds. An evaluation will be made of the total yield of fish of marketable size for human consumption and of small fish for processing into fish meal for feeding aquatic animals with a high market value. The fertilization potential of the final effluent for agricultural crops will be assessed. The attenuation of human intestinal bacteria through the system will be monitored.
