“…Progressive farmers can achieve more than 15 tonnes/ha/year, while the average yield is around 8 tonnes/ha. The stunted rohu fingerlings performed better in growth and survivability when raised in grow-out ponds than commonly raised rohu fingerlings [57]. The study also found that stunted fingerlings stocked at a density of 3,000/ha achieved marketable size within 5-6 months with a high survival rate of 85-95%.…”

Aquaculture is an important industry for national economies, but it needs to improve its survival rates through increased technology awareness. Stunted fingerlings, obtained from aged fish, are a practical alternative for stocking in aquaculture due to their higher survival rates and disease resistance. Farmers can produce stunted fish fingerlings by rearing fish at a higher stocking density and feeding them with natural food for a prolonged period. Farmers use a supplementary feed mixture of Soya Bean Cake, Ground Nut Oil Cake, Rice Bran, and Fish Meal to promote optimal growth. Using feed bags to reduce waste can also help ensure proper growth and reduce costs. Stunting of fish fingerlings has been shown to improve growth and survivability in grow-out ponds, resulting in higher yields. Access to quality fingerlings, market demand, and best management practices are critical for success. Stunted fingerlings could be a practical solution to address the problems of limited fingerling availability and high production costs in aquaculture. Multiple stockings and multiple harvesting are cost-effective methods to increase fish production and enhance pond productivity. Farmers need to follow best management practices and implement sustainable practices to minimize environmental and community impacts.

“…In the North-Eastern region, stunting of earlier year carp seed can be an effective tool to better utilize the potential growth season in polyculture. However, the genetic quality of the seed must be ensured before adopting this technique [57].…”
