Trout Fish Farming in Gilgit Baltistan Pakistan
Trout is the common name for a number of species of freshwater fish. Most trout such as lake trout live in freshwater lakes and/or rivers exclusively, while there are others such as the rainbow trout which may either live out their lives in fresh water or spend two or three years at sea before returning to fresh water to spawn, a habit more typical of salmon. A rainbow trout that spends time in the ocean is called a steelhead.
Trout fish farming is an important natural and potential source of income of the farmers of Northern Areas (NAs). Nature has bestowed the NAs with large cold water resources with a variety of habitats that are best suited for trout farming.
A research was undertaken to identify the problems faced by the commercial trout farmers and to determine their profitability and suggest policy measures for the development of commercial farming.
The land site was the key factor for fish farming where ponds and hatchery were to be constructed. The soil should retain water and be suitable for concrete construction. The most important factor was the quality and quantity of water available to the site, oxygen demand, carbon dioxide, ammonia, suspended solids, and the P.H and temperature assessment on an aquaculture facility.
Trout was also sold to the consumers at the rate of Rs300kg except during the breeding season from December to February.
Road access and distance of the customers need great consideration when choosing a site. The farmers stated that the area had the potential to build a number of ponds/raceways if the opportunity was provided and markets established.
