After releasing fingerlings you must ensure the:
maintenance of hygienic pond environment
continuous availability of natural fish food in the pond
provision of supplementary feed on daily basis
To ensure these you must follow daily manuring/feeding schedule
DAILY WORK SCHEDULE
Follow the daily manuring schedule
For one bigha of water area (33 decimal) apply the manure as per the following table:
| Manure/fertilizers | Per decimal of water area | Per bigha (33 decimal) of water area |
| Cow dung | 150–200 g | 5–7 kg |
| Poultry/duck dropping | 90–150 g | 3–5 kg |
| Urea | 3–5 g | 100–150 g |
| TSP | 1–2 g | 50–75 g |

METHOD OF MANURING
