Chemical Analysis of Fish Pond Soil and Water

Increasing attentions are now being paid towards soil and water quality management of different fish culture systems, especially in fish ponds, with a view to improving their productivity potentials. This is usually achieved through monitoring of soil and water properties of the ecosystem at various stages. Adequate knowledge about different analytical procedures for assessment of these properties are the basic pre-requisites for these exercise. Here are numbers of good publications on chemical analysis of fish pond soil and water and most of them deal with the subject in very comprehensive manner. Although such literatures are highly useful for the researchers and other persons involved in studies on chemistry of the aquatic ecosystems, yet much of the knowledge are usually not so essential for most of the workers aged in fisheries development without much background in chemistry.
