2. โข Technical interventions in existing aquatic resource systems, which can substantially alter the
environment, institutional and economic attributes of the system
โข โculture-based fisheries (stock and recapture)โ
โข โstock enhancement (enhanced capture fisheries)โ
โข โspecies enhancement (introduction of species)โ
โข โenvironmental enhancement (fertilizing water bodies)โ
โข โmanagement enhancement (introducing new management options)โ
โข โenhancement through new culture systems (cage culture, pen culture, FADs, etc.)โ
โข The two most common forms of enhancement suitable for and followed in Indian reservoirs
are:
โข culture-based fisheries
โข stock enhancement
โข Culture-based fishery is the most common mode of enhancement being followed in inland
water bodies in India

Enhancement
3. 3
Culture based fisheries increase
production in natural environments by
controlling a part of the life history of
certain species and transplanting or
releasing their seed or fry into open
waters
4. Species enhancement
โข Inducting new species to broaden the catch
structure
โข Stocking of right species at appropriate
proportion- key factor
โข Plays very important role for the
augmentation of fish production from
reservoirs
โข The combination and composition of species
to be selected is based on the available food
niche
โข Species introductions into a reservoir system
area controversial issue on account of the
competition offered by the introduced species
at various levels to the endemic fishes of the
system

โข Catla, rohu performed better in terms of
yield
โข Transplanted catla established a breeding
population in most of the reservoirs
โข High proportion of catla & rohu are
recommended for stocking in reservoirs
with high density of phytoplankton and
zooplankton
โข The % 0f mrigal should be determined
based on benthic food niche and detritus
load
5. Species enhancement scenario of Indian reservoirs
Common carp-
suitable to many
reservoirs of
karnataka & tamil
nadu
Small reservoirs-
catfish fishery
ICAR-CIFRI promotes
the stocking of
freshwater prawn, in
small productive
reservoirs
Grass carps & silver
carp- unfavourable for
stocking in south
indian reservoirs
Ompok pabda,
O.bimaculatus, Mystus
cavasius โ karnataka
reservoirs
Indian reservoirs are
mostly being stocked
with carps

6. Stock enhancement
Stock enhancement may be done either
by altering the species itself or by
altering the relative stock density
Types of stock enhancement:
โข Single species enhancement
โข Multiple species enhancement
โข Predator enhancement
โข Predator control
โข Multispecies enhancement strategy
is usually applied across India
โข Non-predator introductions in
reservoirs could be related to the
plasticity in feeding niches
โข This would allow a greater degree of
niche-packing and restricts effects on
long-term stability of existing
communities
โข Predator enhancement- to control
weed fish (tried in Tungabhadra
reservoir)
9. Pen culture
โข Pens are portions of waterbody cordoned off by erecting a fence like
structure
โข Hybrid between cage and pond culture
โข Suitable for waterbodies with depth not more than 1.2 m
โข Muddy clayed loamy soil- best utilised bottom
โข Different shapes of pens:
โข polygonal
โข rectangular
โข square
โข circular
โข Rectangular shaped pens were widely used in India
