Stocking density and salinity influence on the growth and survival of golden Anabas fry were studied. Experiments were carried out at Hatchery Unit, Institute of Bioscience, Universiti Putra Malaysia, Serdang Selangor, Malaysia. Growth parameters were measured once a month. While survival was monitored daily throughout the experimental period. Water quality such as temperature, dissolved oxygen...

This study was carried out to evaluate the growth response of Nile tilapia; O. niloticus L. to dietary protein levels at two stocking densities. This study was bifactorial designed (3 protein levels × 2 stocking densities). Fish (1.8-2.5 g/fish) was randomly distributed into the aquaria at a rate of 15 or 30 fish/100 L. The temperature was adjusted at 27±1oC. Fish of each density were fed eithe...

a r t i c l e i n f o Keywords: Alaska Crustacean Hatchery Large-scale culture Paralithodes camtschaticus Red king crab Juvenile red king crab (Paralithodes camtschaticus) mass rearing was conducted in Seward, Alaska, USA in a king crab stock enhancement feasibility study. Hatchery-raised juveniles were cultured from larvae of 12 ovigerous females collected from Bristol Bay, Alaska, USA. Juveni...

In less intensive shrimp culture systems, polychaetes are known to be a major food item of several penaeid species. Under these conditions, very little is known about their population dynamics and the possible interactions with penaeid predation and artificial feeding. This work examined the effects of Penaeus subtilis, predation, stocking density and supplemental feeding on the population dyna...

Plots in an unmanaged loblolly-shortleaf pine (Pinus taeda L.-P. echinata Mill.) stand that had been cutover I5 yrpreviously were established to representfive stocking levels: 10, 20, 30, 40, and 50%. The stand was on a good site (site indexLob = 90 ft at 50 yr) and had uneven-aged character. Two competition control treatments (none and individual tree release using herbicide) were also assigne...

The study was undertaken to evaluate the long-term genetic impact of maintenance stocking upon wild brook trout (Salvelinusfontinalis) populations in Wisconsin. Trout were collected from streams of the Wolf and Fox River drainages and from the Osceola State Trout Hatchery. The stocking histories of the streams ranged from unstocked to heavily stocked for many years. The planted fish consisted p...

We investigate a delayed stage-structured Ivlev’s functional response predator-prey model with impulsive stocking on prey and continuous harvesting on predator. Sufficient conditions of the global attractivity of predator-extinction periodic solution and the permanence of the system are obtained. These results show that the behavior of impulsive stocking on prey plays an important role for the ...

Many production planning problems call for the minimization of stocking/storage costs. This paper introduces a new global constraint StockingCost([X1, . . . , Xn], [d1, . . . , dn],H, c) that holds when each item Xi is produced on or before its due date di, the capacity c of the machine is respected, and H is an upper bound on the stocking cost. We propose a linear time algorithm to achieve bou...

● lower stocking densities and production levels than in conventional systems (stocking densities on dairy farms on average 80% lower; on beef and sheep farms 40-80% lower). Organic certification Definitions of ‘organic’ farming vary internationally. Many countries operate national or ‘private’ standards, which do not have statutory status. The International Federation of Organic Farming Moveme...
