Rural crucian carp farming: 5 farming management methods that farmers and friends should know
As people nowadays increasingly favor the farming industry, many farmers and friends have started farming crucian carp. Crucian carp is no stranger to us farmers and friends, but do you know the good management methods? Only by understanding management and farming methods can you better increase crucian carp yields. Next, let me tell farmers and friends about them:
1. Extremely fast growth. It is basically suitable for farming everywhere, and the feed conversion rate is also quite high. The golden crucian carp has firm flesh, a high meat yield, few small bones, a delicious taste, and fairly high nutritional value.
2. Strong disease resistance. Judging from the areas where it has been promoted so far, the golden crucian carp is not prone to disease, and no large-scale disease outbreaks have occurred. Because it is not prone to disease, the survival rate in pond farming is high.
3. Strong stress resistance. It tolerates low temperatures and can safely overwinter in a pond water environment with a water temperature of 1.5°C and a water level of 1.2 m under ice.
4. High feed conversion rate. The golden crucian carp is an omnivorous fish, and its feeding habits and digestion inherit the functions of both parents. Under pond conditions, it has strong digestion and absorption of the nutrients in artificially prepared complete feed, a high feed conversion rate, and a low feed coefficient. The feed coefficient at the juvenile stage is 1:1.5, and the feed coefficient from fingerling to adult stage is only 1:1.5. Calculated by the total output of fish in the whole pond, the feed coefficient is less than 1:1.3. From this, it can also be seen that this fish has strong survival ability.
5. High nutritional value. The golden crucian carp has firm yet tender flesh, a delicious taste, complete nutrition, and high value. This is mainly shown in the "three highs." First, a high meat yield. The meat yield of the golden crucian carp is 71.33% of fresh weight, higher than that of the ordinary crucian carp currently farmed. Second, a high protein content. Its protein content is 18.61% of fresh weight, higher than that of ordinary crucian carp. Third, a high amino acid content. The protein of the golden crucian carp is higher than that of ordinary crucian carp. Therefore, this fish is deeply welcomed by consumers.
