An experiment was conducted in six nursery ponds to determine the effect of differentdoses of organic fertilizer (chicken droppings) on growth and survival of Labeo rohitaspawn. Ponds were stocked with four-days old L. rohita spawn at a density of 25g/decimal and reared for 25 days. Three doses of organic fertilizer viz. 20kg, 10 kg and5kg per decimal were tried in treatments Tp T2 and T3 respectively with two replicationeach. Fry were fed twice a day with a mixture of fine mustard oil cake and rice bran atthe ratio of 1:1. The highest growth (6.33 em and 3.33 g) and survival rate (72.30%) wereobserved for the treatment T2. Physico-chemical and biological parameters were foundwithin the productive range for all the treatments.Journal
