Abstract:	A composite fish species including silver carp, bighead carp, common carp, grass carp, rohu, and mrigalwere stocked in twelve small earthen ponds, each of 500m2 in the ratio of 40: 20: 20: 10: 5: 5 to select the most effective type of manure for the production of fish yield. Each pond was stocked with fishes at the rate of 8000/ha. The experiment consisting of four treatments was started on 2057-6-1 and terminated on 2058-2-1, a period of 270 days. Each treatment had three replicates. The first, second, and third treatment ponds were manured by chicken droppings, pig manure and cattle manure@ 500 kglhalmonth on dry matter basis, respectively. The control pond was not provided with any manure. No feeding at all in any pond. Chicken manured ponds exhibited the highest production (3. 78 mt/ha) and this was followed by pig-manured ponds (2.49 mt/ha) and cattle manured ponds (2.14 mt/ha), respectively. The control pond had minimum production of 1.2 mt/ha. However, the experiment gave non-significant result. Fish survival in the treatment ponds remained nearly 80% and it was 75% in the control pond. No outbreak of disease occurred during the experimental period.
