(A Powerful,
Economical, Efficient Water & Soil Probiotic) |
The success of aquaculture operation is largely dependent on the
water and soil conditions. It is imperative that the pond bottom
should live longer than the cultured animals. The fresh water
aquaculture operations include the fish culture, scampi culture
and poly culture utilizing both the species. The culture periods
are longer when compared with marine species and the pond bottom
tends to get heavily polluted with high levels of organic
wastes. Freshwater prawn (Macrobrachium rosenbergii)
farming has been expanding globally as an alternative species to
P.monodon as it is claimed to be less susceptible to
disease than marine shrimp. However, a wide variety of diseases
and water quality problems have already been reported.
Antibiotics, which have been used in large quantities are in
many cases ineffective or result in increases in virulence of
pathogens. Further more, they are cause of concern in promoting
transfer of antibiotic resistance to human pathogens. Usage of
probiotics would be a better means to curb the problems. The
composition of microbial species in the ponds could be altered
by adding specially adapted species of bacteria to overcome the
pathogenic bacteria. "BIOCARE" has been specially
designed to be used in for freshwater aquaculture operations
where disease problems are likely to be encountered. It
effectively degrades sludge on the pond bottom and maintains
water quality.
COMPOSITION :
"BIOCARE"
is mainly composed of non-pathogenic, freshwater adapted
Bacillus and fungal species which are capable of producing
copious amounts of degrading enzymes viz., amylase, protease,
lipase and cellulose. These bacteria are capable of becoming
dominant species in short time.
ADVANTAGES :
FDirect
application. No brewing or soaking is required.
FLow
levels of application which works out to be economical.
FReduces
BOD and COD levels.
FReduces
levels of ammonia and other toxic gases.
FConditions
the bottom and maintains good water quality and also
stabilizes blooms and regulates pH.
FBecomes
dominant species and curbs the growth of pathogenic
bacteria.
FReduces
the usage of expensive chemicals, zeolites and
antibiotics thereby reducing the cost of
production.
FDegrades
sludge.
FOptimizes
FCR.
DOSAGE AND USAGE :
1 Kg/ha.
of water spread area once in 15 days till 90 days of culture.
Increase the dosage by 500 gms/Ha for subsequent applications
till end of culture. Mix in 50 lts of pond water and spread
evenly all over the pond preferably in the evening time. |
