Abstract: There are about 17 Lkh ponds covering 3 lakh acres in rural Bangladesh. A survey of 297 ponds in Mymensingh district revealed that a vast majority of the owners did not practice scientific fish culture due to multiplicity of ownership, lack of resources, unavailability of improved fish fries. Consequently fish output per acre was very low. Production of fresh water fish can, therefore, be increased to a considerable extent by ensuring scientific utilization of existing fish ponds.
