Conclusion
a. Fish yield is close positive related to the total input of
crude protein of animal manure. Input 1 kg of manure
protein can converse into 0.41 kg of fish protein.
b. Fish yield does not closely related to the quantity of
crude fat and total input of energy.
c. Different species of fish shows different growing rate
by the effects of different animal manure.
d. Fish yield affect by stocking model (species and
weight) and culture period. Usually at a culture period
126-330 days, the fish yield can reach 18-32 kg/ha/day.

4.4 Fish-cattle Integration
•Manure available is most stable and reliable (a cow
with body weight 460 kg can annually
produce 13,600 kg feces and 9,000 kg urine).
•The leftover of cow feed (grass 3,000 kg) can be
reused by fish. And matted grass from
cowshed can be used as compost for fishpond.
•Available milk (4,500kg) and fish (500kg) to market
•Cow manure can be dispersed by hand, flushing, boat
or spray nozzle .

5. Allocation of animal number to fishpond
N=(Y1-RY2)×C÷M
Where,
• N---The number of animal meet for per unit of fishpond
(head/ha)
• Y1---The net fish yield of omnivorous and filtering feeder
that plan to produce (kg/ha)
• Y2---The plan gross fish yield of grain feeder (kg/ha)
• R---The ratio of net weight of omnivorous and filtering
feeder which produce from the fertilizer result from the
excreta and feces of grain-feeder, to the gross weight of
grain-feeder. (21-34%)
• C---Manure conversion rate (MCR)
• M---Manure quantity of one head animal in one year or one
production period (kg/head), the urine can be calculate as
1/7-1/5 of manure.
N=(Y1-RY2)×C÷M
Mb= Ma ×Cb ÷ Ca
ex. 1,000 ×10 ÷4 = 2,500 (kg)
N=(Y1-RY2)×C÷M
• If the value inside the bracket (Y1-RY2) = 0;
it means the stocking ratio of plan net yield of
omnivorous and filtering feeder to plan gross
yield of grain feeder is optimum.
• If the value inside the bracket (Y1-RY2) < 0;
it means the the plan net yield of omnivorous
and filtering feeder is less than the weight
that can produce by the fertilizer of feces of
grain feeder.
Example 1.
A fish farm has fishpond area of 10 ha.
Plan to produce total net yield of 6,000 kg/ha of
fish; and grain feeder is 2,250 kg (stocking
fingerling 450 kg/ha). R is 30%. Duck manure
production is 50 kg/head/year. MCR of duck
manure is 10. So, how many duck should be
raised to meet the fertilizer demand of the farm?
Answer:
• Y1= 6000-2250 = 3,750 (kg/ha)
• Y2= 2250+450 = 2,700 (kg/ha)
• R=30%
• C=10
• M=50 kg/head
• The number of animal needed by 1 ha of fishpond
was calculated as following:
N=(Y1-RY2)×C÷M
• N=(3,750-2,700×30%)×10÷50
• N=2,940×10÷50 = 580 (head)
•Net yield of 6,000 kg/ha (omnivorous and filer feeder account for 60-75%,
others 25-40%);
•If only filtering feeder and omnivorous fish are stocked (omnivorous account
for 1/4 -1/3), the amount will be increase 20%

7.22 Routine manure (additional manure)
• Routine manure is used to sustain algal
productivity, and manure application rate is adjusted
to maintain a balance between high productivity and
acceptable water quantity.
• Daily manure application rate is usually about 20-
25% (dry weight) of stock weight and usually
increase 20% by month, but it should be adjusted
according to:
– The depth of pond water
– Water transparency (25-35 cm)
– Water color
– Stock weight
– Water temperature
