Background
Availability of quality seed was the major drawback in the context of Indian Aquaculture. Previously, breeding and hatching of carps were undertaken using bundhs, happas and recently by cement circular hatcheries. Once installed, the cement structured hatcheries can’t be shifted from place to place. It required large space for installation. The installation and operation cost were also high.
Technology Details
The innovation of portable FRP carp hatchery is adding a feather to blue revolution in the country by producing fish seed at the farmer’s field. The transportation of seed from different far off places to the farm site involving substantial cost is getting reduced by introduction of this hatchery. It is portable in nature. It requires less water during fish breeding and spawn production. It is easy to install, operate and repair. It needs less space for installation. It is less weight and the durability of the product is for 15 years. The system is so designed that it creates an environment suitable for fish breeding in the field condition for 10-12 kg of carps in single operation. In one run, 1.0-1.2 million spawn can be produced. This hatchery can also be used as a tool for fish biodiversity conservation. In lean season the system can be used for ornamental fish rearing, common carp breeding and water storing purpose.
