Role of Broodstock Nutrition and its Impacts on Fish Reproductive Output: An Overview

A major prerequisite for the successful growth of aquaculture is ability to properly manage sexual maturation and spawning, as well production huge numbers high-quality seeds. One most critical variables impacting a cultured organism’s reach its genetic potential reproduction proper nutrition. Broodstock diet has long been known affect fecundity, fertilisation rate, egg quality, embryo development larval hatchery success. Optimal broodstock management strategies based on thorough understanding nutritional environmental needs fishes bred in captivity. Many factors influence fish growth, gonad reproduction. Protein, lipids, minerals, vitamins carotenoids are among these factors. Not only improved nutrition feeding demonstrated improve sperm but it also shown seed yield. As result, over last two decades, increased emphasis placed levels various nutrients diets. research, other hand, scarce relatively expensive do.
