To know the effect of four different fish feed, nine months old common carp about 47 g size were stocked at the stocking density of 12 fish m-3 in the cages and cultured in Lake Phewa for 175 days. Four different feed ingredients used were fish meal + soybean + oil cake + rice bran + wheat flour, fish meal + oil cake + rice bran + wheat flour, soybean + oil cake + rice bran + wheat flour and commercial cattle feed. The crude protein ranges from 23 to 32.2%. 32.2% protein content feed containing ingredients of fish meal + soybean + oil cake + rice bran + wheat flour was better for the fish growth (0.30 g day-1) but was the lowest survival rate (65.4%) followed by 27.1% protein content feed containing fish meal + oil cake + rice bran + wheat flour (0.23 g day-1). 26.2% protein content feed containing soybean + oil cake + rice bran + wheat flour without animal protein was the poorest growth rate (0.17 g day-1) with the highest survival rate (95.7%) among the tested feed. It was observed that feed with higher protein level was better for the fish growth and the growth of the fish was different significantly among the treatments except the treatment fish meal + oil cake + rice bran + wheat flour and commercial cattle feed. The common carp fish cultured in cages through artificial feed was not satisfactory. It digs and burrows the pond embankments and sides in search of organic matter that makes pond turbid.Key words: Cage fish culture; Common carp; Feed ingredientsDOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3126/narj.v4i0.4871Nepal Agriculture Research JournalVol. 4&5, 2001/2002Page: 60-63Uploaded date: 9 June, 2011

A four week experiment was conducted to evaluate the effect of isoproteinous (35%) feed prepared named diet 1, 2, 3 and 4 respectively by substituting 0%, 50% , 75% and 100% fish meal with meat and bone meal in view of preparing a cost effective tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) fry feed. The four experimental diets (diet 1 to 4) each were randomly assigned to twelve hapas with three replications. Tilapia fry (0.011g) were randomly stocked in 100 fry/9ft² hapa and fed five times a day up to their apparent satiation. The results of the study showed that the weight gain, specific growth rate (SGR), the apparent net protein utilization value and survival (%) of the fish were significantly  (P<0.05) higher and better feed utilization with lower FCR value was observed in fish fed on the diet 4 where meat and bone meal was used as sole source of protein base. There was no significant difference between the carcass moisture and lipid of fish fed with different experimental diets. The results of the study indicated that diet 1 containing fish meal (45.15% Fish meal, 27.43% Rice bran and 27.43% Wheat flour) can be replaced by meat and bone meal containing diet 4 (54.06% Meat and bone meal, 22.97% Rice bran and 22.97% Wheat flour) with no adverse effects on growth and survival of O. niloticus. Before recommendation several trials will be necessary in different farms to be  sure of the reproducibility of the result obtained in the present experiment. Cost- benefit analysis reveals that the   meat and bone meal containing diet certainly provides cheaper feed.   DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/jbau.v10i1.12110   J. Bangladesh Agril.

High protein content in maggot is one of the advantages for increasing fish growth through artificial feed. This study aimed to find the best optimization and feed formulation for fish meal substitution with maggot meal on growth, feed utilization efficiency, and survival rate of milkfish (C. chanos). Milkfish (C. chanos) with an average weight of 0.62±0.01 gram/fish was used as test fish. Feeding is carried out at 07.00 a.m., 12.00 p.m., and 17:00 p.m. through fixed feeding rate method. The tested fish was kept for 42 days with a stocking density of 1 fish/l. The experimental design used was a completely randomized design with five treatments and three replications. The treatments which had been done were fish meal substitution with maggot meal as follows: A (0%), B (25%), C (50%), D (75%), and E (100%). The research parameters included total feed consumption (TFC), feed utilization efficiency (FUE), protein efficiency ratio (PER), relative growth rate (RGR), survival rate (SR), and water quality. The results showed that the fish meal substitution with maggot meal had a significant effect (p<0.05) on FUE, PER, RGR and had no significant effect (p>0.05) on TFC and SR. The best treatment of each treatment is in treatment C with a composition of 50% maggot meal substitution on fish meal which resulted in a TFC value of 40.17±4.58, FUE of 27.51±0.77, PER of 0.83±0.03%, and RGR of 2.34±0.10.

Recent changes in feed, livestock and fertilizer prices as well as breeding and agronomic practice developments have created substantial interest in their implications on profitable dairy farm cropping programs. The movement in soybean oil meal prices from under $100/ton in early 1972 to over $400/ton in the summer of 1973 increased the interest in alternatives to soybean oil meal. Dairymen searched for feed ingredients which were relatively cheap per unit of protein. As a consequence, interest in the protein content of alfalfa as influenced by variety, harvesting systems, and method of storage has been substantial in the past few months. Although soybean oil meal prices are expected to drop below the peak levels, the issues raised by the high price levels during 1973 need to be examined.

Abstract The high feed prices caused the cost of feed matters were higher for fish farmers so that needed alternative matter. High prices are caused by fish feed, fish feed ingredients that are imported include fish meal which is the main raw material source of protein to feed the fish so that the necessary alternative feed ingredients for use of fish meal. Maggot can be used as alternative feed matter because it contains crude protein ranged between 30-40% but there are some problems in its production. Media for maggot production used palm kernel meal but the media is hard to find outside of the central plam kernel plantation so as to reduce its use carried out by using a combination of rice bran. Rice bran can be easily to get and can be media for maggot production and low nutrient content of the media production maggot can be corrected through the process of fermentation. This study aims to determine the effect of the combination of media for the production of maggot and find the best combination of media for the production maggot. This research method is to experiment whit Completely Randomized Desing (CRD). The experiment used is 100% palm kernel meal (A), 75% palm kernel meal + 25 rice bran (B), 50% palm kernel meal + 50% rice bran (C), 25% palm kernel meal + 75% rice bran (D) and 100% rice bran with each five replications. The parameters observed were severe maggot production. Analysis of the data used is Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) and to determine the best treatment using Duncan’s Multiple range test with a confidence interval of 5%. The results of this study indicate that the combination of palm kernel meal and rice bran are fermented to give a noticeable effect the production Maggot. The best combination of palm kernel meal and rice bran to produce the highest Maggot is the use of palm kernel meal 75% + 25% rice bran are not significantly different with the use of palm kernel meal 100%. Based on this research result shows that the use of 25% of rice bran can reduce the use of 100% palm kernel meal become only 75% in maggot production.

An experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of dietary lipid and inorganic phosphorus supplementation on growth, retention and loading of phosphorus and nitrogen in young red sea bream. Two levels of lipid (190 and 250 g/kg) and two levels of phosphorus (14 and 19 g/kg) in the dry diets were tested. Four practical diets were formulated and coded as L0P0, L0P1, L1P0 and L1P1, respectively. Diet L0P0 was the fish meal-based (50% fish meal) control diet without addition of lipid and phosphorus (P). Diet L0P1 was supplementation of 2 % mono sodium phosphate to the L0P0 for providing 0.5 % P. Diet L1P0 was supplemented with 5% soybean oil and L1P1 was formulated with the addition of 5% soybean oil and 0.5% P. All diets were fed four times a day until satiation to duplicate groups of 25 fish (mean initial body weight 70.0 ± 1.3g) during 12-week feeding trial. At the conclusion of the experiment, growth and feed performance were lowest in the fish fed control diet, and significantly (P<0.05) improved by supplementing with P. On the other hand, lipid supplementation did not show any statistical difference among the dietary groups. The P and nitrogen (N) retention values for P supplemented diets were significantly (P<0.01) greater and reduced (P<0.01) both N and P excretion. This study demonstrated that, diet with the addition of inorganic P significantly improved fish growth, FCR, nutrient retention, and reduced both N and P loading while no addition of lipid is necessary.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/pa.v21i1-2.16761 Progress.

Abstract Alternative proteins from vegetal sources are being studied, because of the high costs and limited resources of fish meal. The aim of this study was to determine the possibility of including cold-pressed rape cake (CPRC) as a partial protein substitute in diets for common carp, Cyprinus carpio L. Common carp fry were stocked into experimental ponds at a density of 30 fish per pond. The effects on growth, feeding efficiency, and fish body composition were studied for four amounts of CPRC (0, 70, 130, 200 g × kg-1). Statistically significant higher final weights (528-530 g) were obtained with fish fed diets with 130 and 200 g × kg-1 CPRC. The fish growth rate was nearly identical in all variants (SGR of 3.3-3.4 % d-1). Similar results were presented in FCR at 1.3, and in PER at 2.2. Our results suggest that it is possible to include up to 200 g × kg-1 of CPRC in diets for two-year old common carp without significant effects on growth, nutritive efficiency, or the proximate composition of the fish.
