A Grass Carp From A Pond In Swiftlet Farming Area !!!

Video Clip on Grass Carp Fish.



This grass carp was fished out of a pond belongs to Mr.O who have just purchased this piece of land for 200K.

He got with him three acres and five fish ponds.

I was invited to the site to make close observations of those swiftlets.

We were there from noon till 7.oo pm.

While waiting for the sun to come down we did some fishing. His son got a few red Talapias while he got two, almost 4 kilos each, of the grass carp.

His plan was to built a BH on one section of the land facing the five fish ponds.

The fish ponds will be used by him to attract those wild birds over. I told him to let the entrance hole to be facing the ponds.

He also planned to breed some carp, talapias, ikan hantu, leaches and keli.

Those empty lands will be filled with Gaharu plants. Each young plant was said to be about 15 ringgit. Upon maturity plus contaminated with those fungi solution they will be worth about US 20K per kilo.

The Gaharu project seem to be well promoted by the Ministry of Agriculture.

I was amazed at his deep knowledge on those new things but I prefer to focus on swiftlet farming.
