Fry level seed has been brought from Bangladesh and successfully reared to marketable size. Initially, farm gate price was Rs. 40 \u2013 50 \/ kg against the production cost of Rs. 30 \/ kg. Due to comparatively good margins, many farmers started catfish mono-culture in freshwater carp ponds and some farmers have intensified with production as high as 60 ton \/ ha. At one point of time, markets were flooded with catfish stocks bringing down the price to Rs. 30 \/ kg. Further consumers are not interested in catfish (compared to carp fish) due to high oil content. Soya bean cake is the chief feed Ingredient used in the feed component.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/MudFGXYuGCk\" width=\"480\" height=\"360\" frameborder=\"0\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Credit: Indian fish farmers and G.
