Subsidy on Fish Farming: Good earnings in fish farming do not come only from better seeds and right feed. Rather, the quality of water is equally important. If the oxygen level in the pond decreases, the growth of the fish may stop and the risk of death also increases. In such a situation, aerator machine proves to be very helpful for the farmers.
This machine works to increase oxygen in water, due to which the fish remain healthy and production also improves. The good thing is that Bihar government is now giving up to 70 percent subsidy to fish farmers on purchasing aerator machines. Know how farmers can take advantage of this scheme.
How does aerator machine increase profits?
The aerator machine works to continuously supply oxygen to the pond water. When there is enough dissolved oxygen in water, fishes remain more active, their growth happens faster and the risk of diseases also reduces. This machine is considered even more important in summer or in ponds with high stocking. Due to this, the quality of water remains better and the mortality rate of fishes reduces.
