Objectives of the Course

Harvest is one of the most important parts of fish farming and is frequently overlooked. Transporting fish is a very important part of fish culture. Fry and fingerlings must be transported from hatchery to pond for stocking. Brood fish are sometimes transported into the hatchery to spawn. It may even be necessary to transport live harvested fish to the market for sale. Many methods for fish transport have been developed.
