Abstract

This study was conducted through the direct interview of 90 households applying the alternative system of culturing frogs in Tra Vinh Province from 9/2020 to 3/2020. The study aimed to determine current status of frog farming. The collected data includes the technical and financial aspect of culturing frogs. The results showedthat there are two models of frog farming: culturing frogs in canvas (65.56% of households), and culturing frogs in cages (34.44% of households); Both models applied the same average farming area of 36.27 m2 with stocking density of 115 inds/m2. After 2.6 months of culturing, the average frog size was 257 g. The average frogyield produced 21,024 kg/1,000 m2/crop and the net income of 100 million VND/1,000 m2/crop was achieved. The result indicated that it is easy to raise frogs because the households can take advantage of the surrounding area of their houses for raising frogs and therefore the farmers’ could improve by this method.
