Adaptation Mechanism of Fisheries in the Perspective of Climate Change


It is important to overcome from the negative impact of climate change on fish biodiversity and production. Otherwise, in one way as environmental balance will be destroyed, in another way our food security will be seriously threatened. We need to take steps for adapting with the changing environment to overcome the negative impact of climatic change. For this purpose, following adaptation techniques can be undertaken-

  1. Though salinity is increasing in coastal region due to climatic change, so steps should be taken to produce saline tolerant fish and fries. Like vetki, bata, porshe etc.
  2. The water body where salinity is increasing, shrimp and crab can be cultivated.
  3. Drought prone area where low rainfall occurs, big fries can be cultivated in the temporary water. For this reason, big fries should be stocked in the locality. Tilapia is much more drought tolerant fish. Koi and deshi magur can also be cultivated in drought prone regions.
  4. In flood prone areas or where more rainfall occurs, the banks of the pond should be raised or surrounded by net so that flood water cannot enter into pond or pond fishes cannot go away.
  5. By raising bank of the ponds in flood prone areas, society based fish fry bank can be established. Fries can be stocked in that pond when flood occurred in that area.
  6. In flood prone areas, fish can be cultivated in cage during flood.
  7. If coastal area is immersed by water after breaking the groyne, stagnant water can be utilized by fish culture with proper planning, fish culture in cage and culture of crab in the affected areas.
  8. Due to increasing temperature of the environment day by day, temperature tolerant fish cultivation and production of their fries can be carried out. For example: Magur, Rui, Shing.
  9. If pond water becomes warm due to increasing temperature, topa hyacinth can be kept on bamboo frame making in few specific locations. Thus, fish can take shelter under topa hyacinth to protect itself from warm. For maintaining same purpose, some creeper plants can be given opportunity for generating on water nearer to bank of the pond.
  10. Roaming area for sea fish is changing due to climatic changes.

What are the Importance of Family Farming

Image
Bangladesh is an agriculture based country. Agriculture is the key factor to run its economy. Farmers of this country maintain agricultural farm since the ancient period. Farmers produce crop, livestock, poultry and fish in their farms. The concept and importance of household agricultural farming have been discussed in this part. Family Farming Farmers in Bangladesh produce crop, vegetables, livestock, poultry and fish by family agricultural farming. Farm may be commercial or household according to its size. Commercial agricultural farm is further categorized into large, medium and small. Big capital and manpower are required for commercial farm. But small capital is required for household farm. Household agricultural farm sometimes can earn some extra incomes after meet up the family needs. Now-a-days farmers are planning to set up farm by considering earning a decent income from family agricultural farm. Generally, family members maintain the family agricultural farm. Importance of F

Influence of Climate on Crop Production in Bangladesh

From the beginning of the creation of the earth, the climate is being changed gradually; thereby getting suitable for animals and plants to survive. The trend of this climate change was very slow. But a remarkable change in climate is being noticed in many countries of the world for the last century. Climate change due to increase in temperature has been created an unfavorable condition in nature. The developed world is responsible for this change. The concentration of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere is increasing due to urbanization, mechanical civilization, industrialization, injudicious use of fuel and coal, deforestation etc. For that reason, world temperature is increasing day by day. Now- a- days, Bangladesh is identified as the most affected and hazardous country in the world. Human Development of the United Nations (2007- 08) said that seven core people of Bangladesh will be affected due to climate change. Due to geographical location and geo-natural characteristics, Banglad

Adaptation Mechanism in Livestock for the Perspective of Climate Change

Image
Adaptation involves the technique to adapt of a species with its environment. It should be remembered that adaptation process is accomplished in animal body. Animal adaptation is controlled by environmental weather and climate. So, adaptation depends on environmental temperature, humidity, wind blowing and its properties, height of the place from the sea level and physical structure & physical condition of animal. Animal can survive by facing those properties of adaptation. It is the normal phenomenon of nature. Although human being can protect them by their knowledge if suddenly massive climatic change occurs, but livestock and poultry cannot be adapted in that situation. Because livestock and poultry are helpless and gentle animal. Many of them are to be able to adapt with the environment if the climatic change is occurred slowly in that area. Many species may also be extinct due to unable to adapt with environment. People�s help is required for animal adaptation in unfavorable a
