| Abstract | ||
| In order to study the effect of poultry manure level on silver carp, a study was conducted at Abbassa, Central Laboratory For Aquaqulture, Agricultural Research Centre. Three levels of poultry manure (500, 750 and 1000 kg/hectar pond) applied biweekly as organic fertilzer were tested monthly from July to October. Results obtained can be summarized as follows 1-Averages of body weight (g) at the experimental period for the three levels of poultry manure were 20.21, 50.84 and 57.21g, respectively. 2-Averages of body length (cm) for the treatment were 12.35, 16.99 and 17.37, respectively. 3-Increasing poultry manure levels increased significantly (P <0.001) growth performance of silver carp in the form of body weight and body lenght. 4-Gain in live weight could be determined by gain in body lenght. | ||
