“…If a fixed amount of lime per hectare is used in ponds without soil analysis, lime can be wasted or be insufficient to increase alkalinity to the desired level. In Chinese carp polyculture ponds in south Brazil, water reached similar total alkalinity values (20 to 40 mg L -1 ) when 6,000 kg ha -1 of agricultural lime was used (Silva et al, 2006).…”

“…In 2005, in the State of Rio Grande do Sul (RS), 21,000 ton of carp were produced (IBAMA, 2006). Studies on carp polyculture in Brazil have been directed towards the introduction of new species such as tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) and native jundia (Rhamdia quelen), in their initial (Silva et al, 2006) and final culture periods (Silva et al, 2008). The present study was developed taking into account the importance of carrying out on-farm research to obtain sustainable results under field conditions (Azim et al, 2004;Wahab et al, 2011), and developing appropriate technologies using a participatory approach (Murshed-E-Jahan et al, 2008;Barman & Little, 2011).…”

ABSTRACT. The carp polyculture production system is the most widely used system by small-scale fish farmers in southern Brazil (States of Paraná, Santa Catarina and Rio Grande do Sul). The aim of this study was to compare biotechnical and economic parameters between a farm system (FS) using farm inputs (chicken manure, maize and grass) and a commercial system (CS) using commercial inputs (triple super phosphate, ammonium nitrate and balanced food) feeding to apparent satiation. The experiment was carried out for 196 days in earthen ponds of 500 m 2 , with three replicates per system. The stocking density was 2,000 fish ha ) was observed. Production was significantly increased in the CS (76 kg 500 m -2 196 days -1 ) than in the FS (43 kg 500 m -2 196 days -1 ). Costs and revenues were higher in the CS and profits were similar in the two systems. Similar profits do not mean that CS is necessarily more convenient. Advantages and drawbacks for small-scale farmers considering labor, land and availability of money are discussed. Keywords: carp, polyculture, feed, water quality, cost-benefit, aquaculture, Brazil. Efectos de insumos de granja y comerciales en el desempeño del policultivo de carpas:ensayo participativo en una estación experimental en el campo RESUMEN. El policultivo de carpas es el sistema de producción de peces más utilizado por campesinos en el sur de Brasil (Estados de Paraná, Santa Catarina y Rio Grande do Sul). El objetivo de este trabajo fue comparar parámetros técnico-biológicos y económicos entre un sistema de granja (FS) utilizando insumos de la granja (gallinaza, maíz y pasto) y un sistema comercial (CS) utilizando insumos comerciales (súper fosfato triple, nitrato de amonio y alimento balanceado), alimentando hasta saciedad aparente. El experimento se efectuó en tierra durante 196 días en estanques de 500 m 2 , con tres réplicas por sistema. La densidad inicial de los peces fue de 2.000 ind ha ). Los costos e ingresos fueron mayores en el CS y las utilidades fueron similares en ambos sistemas. Utilidades similares no significan que el CS sea necesariamente más conveniente. Se discuten ventajas y desventajas para los campesinos considerando el trabajo, la tierra y la disponibilidad de dinero. Palabras clave: carpa, policultivo, alimento, calidad de agua, costo-beneficio, acuicultura, Brasil.

“…Entre as espécies de peixes criadas no sul do Brasil destacam-se as carpas, em especial a carpa-húngara (Cyprinus carpio Linnaeus, 1758). Este peixe é utilizado em policultivo com outras carpas, como a carpa-capim (Ctenopharyngodon idella Valenciennes, 1844), a carpa-prateada (Hypophthalmichthys molitrix Valenciennes, 1844) e a carpa-cabeça-grande (Aristichthys nobilis Richardson, 1854), em sistemas de produção semi-intensivos, a baixo custo, com aproveitamento de resíduos agroindustriais em sua alimentação (Silva et al, 2006). Porém, o êxito na produção final depende do manejo alimentar empregado nas fases iniciais de cultivo (alevinagem e recria), em que se faz necessário o uso de dietas balanceadas que possibilitem o máximo aproveitamento de nutrientes.…”

Resumo -O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar o crescimento e a qualidade de carcaça de carpa-húngara alimentada com dietas em que houve substituição da farinha de carne suína por farelos de soja e canola, bem como determinar parâmetros bioquímicos do metabolismo dos peixes e a qualidade sensorial do filé. Cada um dos farelos contribuiu com 50% da proteína na mistura. Cinco dietas foram avaliadas, com níveis de substituição (0, 25, 50, 75 e 100%) da proteína da farinha de carne suína pela mistura das fontes vegetais. A inclusão de fontes proteicas vegetais nas dietas reduziu o crescimento, a deposição de gordura corporal e no filé, e o colesterol total dos peixes. A cor e o sabor dos filés não foram afetados pela inclusão das fontes proteicas vegetais. A dieta à base de farinha de carne suína é mais eficiente para o crescimento da carpa-húngara, e proporciona maior deposição de proteína no peixe inteiro e no filé.Termos para indexação: Cyprinus carpio, farelo de canola, farelo de soja, fonte proteica animal, proteína. Replacement of pork meal by plant protein sources in Hungarian carp dietsAbstract -The objective of this work was to evaluate growth and carcass composition of Hungarian carp fed with diets in which pork meat meal was replaced by a combination of canola and soybean meals, as well as to determine fish metabolism biochemical parameters and the sensorial quality of the fillet. Each plant meal contributed with 50% of the dietary protein of the mixture. Five diets were tested, with replacement levels of 0, 25, 50, 75 and 100% of pork meal by plant protein sources. The inclusion of the plant-protein meal in the diet results in lower overall growth, lower body and fillet lipid deposition and lower total cholesterol of the fish. Color and flavor of the fillets were not affected by inclusion of plant protein sources. A pork meat meal based diet is more efficient for Hungarian carp growth, and provides higher whole fish and fillet protein deposition.

“…According to Jain (2002), C. carpio has the ability to survive under various climatic conditions and is found to be most suitable for many fish farming systems. He is also of the opinion that C. carpio has the potential to improve conditions in pond bottom soil, as a result soil perturbation increases the oxygen transfer to the soil, decreases the concentration of toxic compounds and enables more efficient food web recycling and nutrient release (Ritvo et al, 2004;Da Silva et al, 2006;Rahman et al, 2008;Muhammad et al, 2011). Thus through polyculture, farmers can utilize all the different zones in pond water due to different feeding habits of fish and their occupation of different niches and polyculture with Cyprinus carpio.…”

Two field experiments, each of 120-day, were conducted in twelve earthen ponds, each with dimensions 50 x 20 x 1.0m (length x width x depth) were located at Serow Fish Farm, National Institute of Oceanography And Fisheries, Dakahlia Governorate, Egypt, with a view to study the effect of nutrient inputs (feed, manure and their combination) on the common carp (Cyprinus carpio) fry and fingerlings of the fish. The treatments consisted of control (C, T1), only feed (F, T2), only manure (M, T3) and manure plus feed (M+F (T4)). Poultry manure was applied in split doses to ponds of manure treatments (M and M+F). Fry (Experiment one) and fingerlings (Experiment two) of average initial weight 0.67 g and 3.2 g respectively, were stocked seven days after the initial manure application at 5 individuals/m2. Fish in F and M+F treatments were provided a fish meal based pelleted diet once daily in the morning at 5% of body weight. The most dominant genera of phytoplankton encountered were Microcystis, Anabaena and Microspora, while among the zooplankton, Keratella and Nauplii dominated. M+F treatment had the highest plankton biomass (P<0.05). Significant (P<0.05) variation in both phyto and zooplankton dry weight was recorded with respect to the study period. Both feeding and manuring, individually and in combination, significantly improved (P<0.05) the growth of the fish. The highest specific growth rate, final fish weight, and gross production were recorded in M+F treatment in both the experiments. The difference in survival among the control and treatments was not significant in experiment one (P>0.05), whereas F and M+F treatments recorded lower survival (P<0.05) in the second experiment. Fish production was comparable under feed (F) and manure (M) treatments (P>0.05) in experiment one, but was significantly (P<0.05) different in experiment two. The increment in gross fish production over the control was 103.22 and 119.99% in feed, 77.30 and 59.44% in manure and 162.34 and 175.08% in M+F treatments of the two experiments respectively. Carcass protein, fat and ash contents were significantly (P<0.05) higher in the three treatments as compared to the control.
