Fish Farming Course (Lesson 6) - Pond Design & Construction

let us discuss the factors to consider well constructing a fish pod we have a topography of the land availability of capital availability of labor availability of water and the type of soil while constructing a fish ponder topography of the land is very important to get the right punch designer you need a relatively flat lander because of the

terrain alternatively flatlander reduces the cost of production because it reduces the cost of machinery such as the use of an excavator factor number two capital availability one requires capital to start a new venture fishpond is not any different capital is needed in fishpoint construction to pay for higher labor design and construction and aligner if necessary availability of

labor is also a key factor to consider when constructing a fish pod where you consider qualified labor to construct the fish pond availability of water remember we discussed in our previous lesson of facts about fish fish living water so we need water to rear our fish the water should be sufficient and fit

for fish farming while constructing a fish ponder type of soil is also a key factor because we need the type of cell that is able to retain water to avoid seepage and losses in this course we are learning how to increase productivity reduce cost to get more profits therefore if water is not

sufficient fish farming cannot be viable and economical

how do we design a fish pond remember that a fish pond has four walls that are usually slanting when constructing a fish ponder we have to have a dyke what is a dike a dike is a walking walking area around the pond a fish ponder has four walls that are gentle sloping towards the floor of the
