Detailed explanation of grass carp farming techniques, helping you master scientific farming methods

AbstractThe fish pond for farming grass carp needs to be dug relatively large and must be deep; adopting scientific construction methods makes things easier. To keep the pond from being monotonous, a suitable amount of silver carp and bighead carp can be stocked, but they must be stocked according to proportions. It is best not to make the feed too monotonous; some natural pellet feed can be given appropriately, and try not to feed them on hot summer nights.

1. Digging and building the pond

Grass carp is a relatively large-bodied fish, so the pond area should be as large as possible, and a pond depth of 2-2.5 m is more suitable. It is best to choose a location near the pond with good lighting, as this is more favorable for grass carp growth. Generally, the thickness of the silt should preferably not be less than 10 cm. It is best to dig and build a relatively scientific pond, as this facilitates future management.

2. Stocking fry

When raising grass carp, a certain proportion of silver carp or bighead carp can be stocked. Generally, about 500 grass carp fry per mu of pond is more suitable. The accompanying silver carp can be somewhat more, at about 300, while bighead carp do not need to be that many; stocking 60-80 is more suitable.

3. Feed combination

The main feed for grass carp is aquatic plants, but to enrich nutrition, some vegetables or bean-based materials can also be combined, and some natural nutritional pellets can be added appropriately. These pellets are made by mixing various green feeds, which can enrich the nutrition of grass carp. Also, according to weather changes, the feeding time needs to change as well. Especially in hot summer weather, do not feed at night.
