About Animal Resources

Nutrition shows that 80 percent of the amount of animal feed we take in our daily diet provides fish. Among the Southeast Asian countries, the source of rich fisheries in Bangladesh is the source of rich fisheries in the two: Indoor water bodies and marine water bodies. The international water body is divided into two categories namely: the international closed water and the independent free water body. Indoor water reservoirs are pond, dighi, bawr, and coastal tin farm. The free open water body is the river, river, the lake and the floodplain.


Reasons to reduce the fish resources

- Our negligence on fish resources

- Shrinkage of the foliage of filling the silt area

- Irrigation dam construction and water irrigation

- Destroy arbitrary pona and fishing fish

- Drying several bills and low areas in the winter season

- Fishery farming transforms into agriculture

- The destruction of the natural environment of fertility and movement

- Arbitrary insecticide application in agricultural land

- Water pollution caused by throwing industrial waste into the river

- Kill small fish using illegal water

- The lack of biological care of fish in open water

- Piyubure fish farming reluctant

- Planting the cultivator's water in uncertain etc.

          In Ghana, Chinese, German, Russia, America, Israel, Thailand, Pilipin etc, it is possible to improve the yield of acres per year in 4.5-6.0 metric tonnes by cultivating fishes in a descriptive manner. Even in our neighboring India, due to the use of good variety of fish and organic and inorganic fertilizers in different countries, the yield of fish acre has increased almost 3.75 Metricton per year. If we cultivate fish with a desirable outlook in our beautiful fatty water in our country, then we can easily produce fish at least 933 kg to 1120 kg of fish per acre a year.

          The benefits of spreading fisheries in the country are not restricted to meet our requirement. In spite of the widespread cultivation of this fish farming, there is assured confidence of the country's economic prosperity. After the expansion of fisheries, on the one hand, the abundance of animal foods will be generated in our food, as well as the export of fish from abroad will also be achieved by exporting foreign exchange.
