- W2741553641 abstract "Most fish farmers, entrepreneurs, fisheries extension officers, researchers and graduate students in Zambia, have little or no access to the accumulating information on tilapia culture. This manual is an attempt to pull together the most relevant scientific data and information on production and utilization of tilapia feed at farm level for the benefit of this target group. Special conditions in Luapula Province have been taken into account, including other species suitable for polyculture (farming more than one species in the same pond) with tilapia. The manual also briefly discusses methods of integrated farming and relevant business skills. In compiling this document, comprehensive research and literature reviews were carried out during the fieldwork periods that were conducted in Luapula Province in 2013 and 2014. The objectives of the study were to develop well-performing and costeffective supplementary feed formulae and feeding regime particularly using materials that are readily available on the farm. Trials were carried out both at the aquaculture research station in Mansa and on farmers’ ponds to test the performance of the various feed formulae and determine the ideal feeding regimes. Feeds constitute the largest proportion of a fish farmer’s overall costs, sometimes taking more than half of the annual expenditure. Without proper feeding, fish will be stunted and take a long time to reach maturity. A well formulated diet ensures that the fish will get most of the required nutrients for optimal growth. In using locally available materials farmers have the advantage of cost reduction to make their farming activity financially viable. Furthermore the approach used in this activity of conducting on farm trials ensures that farmers learn how to make feed by themselves. This manual therefore contributes in delivering useful information especially to aquaculture extension staff in order to increase tilapia production in the province. Researchers and students will also find it a useful reference material. The study leading to the preparation of this manual was carried out under the Department of Fisheries (DoF) in the Ministry of Agriculture and Livestock (MAL) during second phase of the Programme for Luapula Agricultural and Rural Development (PLARD II)." @default.
