Abstract
Effectiveness of Predator Control Set-up for Aquatic Pest Control in Earthen Ponds for Extensive Culture of Penaeus monodon (Fabricius, 1798)
Highlights
The effectiveness of a conventional predator system for tiger prawn ponds consisting of a net barrier and fence interwoven around a modified pond gateway was compared to an expanded system that directed water-borne pests to a fish compartment
Pesticides have been adopted by farmers in pondbased prawn culture to eliminate predators, increase post-larval survival, and harvest yield (Bocek 2015; Clearwater et al 2008)
Chemical pesticides have been limited to pond preparation due to their increasing costs
Summary
The effectiveness of a conventional predator system for tiger prawn ponds consisting of a net barrier and fence interwoven around a modified pond gateway (set-up 1) was compared to an expanded system that directed water-borne pests to a fish compartment (set-up 2). This study investigated the effectiveness of predator control systems for P. monodon (tiger prawn) earthen ponds.
