Article Abstract
Deterioration of water and soil quality, poor infrastructure facilities and improper maintenance are the major factors that govern aquaculture growth and production in major part of India. In the present study aims to identify the suitable land for aquaculture growth and suggest the sustainable practice to improvise the growth of aquaculture in study region. With use of analytical hierarchy process (AHP) the various significant parameters such as geology, pH, salinity, soil media, slope, geomorphology, land use land cover, distance to water, settlement and road networks were analyzed and based on these characteristics, thematic maps were prepared. The results are revealed that, that 882.13 km area was most suitable, 1264.88 km area was suitable and 14.00 km area was unsuitable for aquaculture in the study region. The study results will helpful to decision makers and to make a design plan for aquaculture growth in the study region.

However, traditional feeds, heavily reliant on fishmeal (FM) and soybean meal, face economic and environmental challenges. In response, black soldier fly larvae meal (BSFLM) has emerged as a promising, nutrient-dense alternative.

Aquaculture systems generate large amounts of sludge that represent serious environmental threats if discharged directly into local ecosystems. However, this nutrient-rich sediment can contribute to nutrient cycling by being applied as an organic fertilizer to ornamental medicinal trees during their early growth stages. To investigate the potential advantages of using recirculating aquaculture system sludge (RASS) and biofloc technology sludge (BFTS) as organic fertilization alternatives to chemical fertilization, a pot trial was conducted at the Faculty of Agriculture, Cairo University, Egypt.

The large-scale loach (Paramisgurnus dabryanus; Cypriniformes: Cobitidae) is primarily distributed in East Asia. It is an important economic fish species characterized by fast growth, temperature-dependent sex determination and the ability to breathe air. Currently, molecular mechanism studies related to some aspects such as sex determination, toxicology, feed nutrition, growth and genetic evolution have been conducted.
