Milkfish culture in the Philippines
(South Pacific Aquaculture Development Project, Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, 1990)In the Philippines, the level of intensity of Chanos chanos culture is categorized into traditional and extensive management. Pond types for different culture systems, stocking practices, acclimation practices, water ... -
Optimized feeding strategies in the larviculture of the Asian seabass Lates calcarifer.
(Asian Fisheries Society, 1990)This paper reports on the progress made at the Tigbauan hatchery of SEAFDEC in the Philippines, with the larviculture of the Asian seabass Lates calcarifer when using w3-HUFA enriched Brachionus and Artemia . In view of ... -
Dietary manipulation to control the chronic soft-shell syndrome in tiger prawn, Penaeus monodon Fabricius.
(Asian Fisheries Society, 1990)Penaeus monodon collected from brackishwater ponds in Iloilo, Philippines, were induced to become soft-shelled in the laboratory for 3-4 weeks. Eight isocaloric and isonitrogenous diets containing 0:0; 0:1; 1:0; 1:0.2; ... -
Practical water chemistry for fishfarmers I. Teaching strategies
(Asian Fisheries Society, 1990)Years of ambitious, yet seemingly futile, efforts by the authors in the Philippines in making fishfarmers comprehend and appreciate chemical reactions the way chemists do, paved the way for the formulation of teaching ... -
A statistical procedure for using "reference fish" to compare the growth of genetic strains in aquaculture
(Asian Fisheries Society, 1990)No simple, well-accepted procedures exist for comparing the relative performance of genetic strains of fish in aquaculture environments. The major technical problem is providing adequate statistical replication of ponds ... -
Use of internal reference population for growth rate comparison of tilapia strains. I. In a crowded environment
(1990)This paper reports an experimental design in which reference fish are included in each replicate to provide internal statistical control over environmental variation. Growth of 10 full-sib families from each of 3 strains ... -
Acceptability of selected zooplankton and phytoplankton for growing larvae/fry of bighead carp (Aristichthys nobilis).
(Proceedings of the Asian Symposium on Freshwater Fish Culture, 11-15 October 1985, Beijing, China, 1990) -
Status of sanitation and marketing of mollusc in the Philippines
(Regional Seafarming Development and Demonstration Project; Network of Aquaculture Centres in Asia, 1989)The mollusc industry of the Philippines has contributed to the economic development of the country in terms of food production and dollar earning. The industry has continuously provided cheap but nutritious shellfishes. ... -
The effect of various levels of protein, fat carbohydrates and energy on growth, survival and body composition of Chanos chanos fingerlings
(Center for Agricultural Publishing and Documentation, Pudoc Wageningen, 1989)Rice and fish are staple foods in the Philipines as well as in other parts of Southeast Asia, where calorie/protin malnutrition is a serious probem. Milkfish, (Chanos chanos) is well-liked by the masses and, therefore, ti ... -
Nutrition and feeds of Nile tilapia broodstock and fry
(Philippine Council for Aquatic and Marine Research and Development, 1989)Studies on some aspects of tilapia and feed formulation conducted at BRS are reviewed in this paper. The effect fo varying dietary crude protien on growth and spawning frequency of tilapia was determined under laboratory ... -
Effect of feeding regimes on growth and survival of bighead carp (Aristichthys nobilis Richardson) fry
(Asian Fisheries Society, 1989)Two five-week feeding trials were undertaken to evaluate growth and survival of bighead carp (Aristichthys nobilis ) fry of 1.9-2.4 mg mean weight reared on various feeding regimes. In Treatment 1, the carp fry were fed ... -
Interaction of the midgut gland and the ovary in vitellogenesis and consequences for the breeding success: a comparison of unablated and ablated spawners of Penaeus monodon
(European Aquaculture Society, 1989)The midgut glands and ovaries of unablated and ablated females of Penaeus monodon were examined before and after spawning by light and electron microscopy to elucidate the role of the midgut gland during vitellogenesis. ... -
Economics of milkfish culture in the Philippines
(Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, South Pacific Aquaculture Development Project, 1990)This paper discusses the costs and returns of three phases in milkfish culture as practiced in the Philippines namely: nursery; stunting or retarding the growth of milkfish fingerlings; and modular culture system. The ... -
An overview of the nutrition, feed and feeding techniques of prawn penaeid/shrimps
(Philippine Council for Aquatic and Marine Research and Development, 1989)This paper echoes what transpired during the first International Conference of Penaeid Prawns/Shrimps held in Iloilo City in December 4-7, 1984, particularly on the Nutrition nd Feed Development. Around 25 papers were ... -
Prawn nutrition, feed development and feeding techniques for grow-out and broodstock
(Philippine Council for Aquatic and Marine Research and Development, 1989)Knowledge on nutritional requirements of prawn juveniles and broodstock are scanty. However, relatively more information is now available with regard to requirements of juveniles compared to that of broodstock. Many ... -
Status of shrimp nutrition and feed development in Southeast Asia.
(Asian Fisheries Society. AFS Spec. Publ. 4, 1989)World demand for shrimp has increased significantly in the last decade. Of the 32 species investigated, the most commonly cultured in Southeast Asia is the Penaeus monodon . Formulated feed constituted around 50% of the ... -
Larval rearing of Penaeus monodon: Feeds and feeding techniques
(Philippine Council for Aquatic and Marine Research and Development, 1989)Larval rearing of P.monodon requires mass culture of selected phytoplankton and zooplankton species. In the protozocal stage, Skelatonoma; Chaetoceros or Tetraselmis is given singly or in combination. The rotifer Brachionus ... -
Food consumption of seaperch, Lates calcarifer, in captivity.
(Pudoc, 1989)In the Philppines, feeds and constitutes some 70% of the total capital cost in aquacultural, which illustrates the central ipmortance of such inputs and at the same time justifies a major research effort to study the field ... -
Amino acid and fatty acid profiles in aquaculture nutrition studies
(Asian Fisheries Society, 1989)The amino acid profile is an important parameter in the evaluation of protein quality and in requirement studies. Amino acid profiles are usually determined in 2 steps: hydrolysis of the protein to constituent amino acids ... -
Milkfish nutrition: A review
(Philippine Council for Aquatic and Marine Research and Development, 1989)This paper reviews recent work on milkfish nutrition. Substantial progress had been made towards understanding the digestive physiology of milkfish. Major enzaymes envolved in the digestions of carbohydrates, protein and ...
