    Paddy& Fish integrated

    farming system
    Doubling of farmers income through paddy cum fish culture.
    Paddy-Fish-Culture Technology.
    Introduction:
    *A rice-fish system is an integrated rice field or pond complex, where fish
    are grown concurrently or alternately with rice.

    * History of Rice-Fish culture is quite old.

    * First started in ancient china about 2000 years ago.

    *Rice production: 29 million tons /year.

    * Fish production:2.70million tons /year.

    *Integrated rice-fish farming offers a solution.


    Culture techniques :

    Fish culture with rice can be practiced in two ways-

    1) Culture of Rice-Fish together / Concurrent system:

    * Generally practiced during Aman season in moderate to low paddy


    fields where water logging exists for 4-5 months naturally.

    *Minor carp and Thai carp are highly suitable for this practice.

    *Tilapia or giant freshwater prawn can also be stocked with rice.


    2)Fish culture after harvesting rice/ Alternative system:

    *In this technique, fish are stocked in the paddy field after harvesting
    rice from the land.

    * 6-7 months rearing of fish is possibleby this way until rice plantation
    in the next season.

    *Carp and barb species are suitable for stocking but grass crap can also
    be stocked.

    * In case of grass carp stocking,precaution must be taken so that this


    fish cannot eat young paddy.
    Site selection :

    *It is important prerequisite for farming.

    *Water holding capacity of the selected plots ,soil must be


    good enough so that soil can hold water easily.

    *Loamy or clay-loamy soils are suitable for Rice-Fish culture.

    *Selected plot should be low land and would contain water


    naturally for 7-10 months but must be secure from flood.
    Rice varieties & Fish species suitable for Rice cum Fish
    culture :

    Rice varieties :- Fish species :-

    * Panidhan * Labeo rohita

    * Tulsi * Catla catla

    * Rajarajan * Clarias sps

    * Jalmagan * Channa sps


    Advantages of paddy cum fish culture:
    * Economic utilization of land.

    *Improves soil fertility & soil health.

    *Enhanced rice yield by 5-15%,which is due to the indirect organic fertilization through
    the fish excreta.

    *Production of fish from paddy field.

    * Additional income.

    * Insect pests of rice like stem borers are controlled by fish feeding on them mainly by
    murrels and catfishes.

    * Reduction of production cost.


    Disadvantages of paddy cum fish culture:

    * Predators such as snake,may eat fish.

    * Restricted pesticide use in control of pest.

    *Maintaing suitable water level for fish culture.

    * Fishes like common carp & tilapia may uproot rice sedling.
