Abstract

Andhra Pradesh, an east-coastal state in southern India leads the country in carp culture, shrimp culture and also scampi culture. Indian major carp culture in earthen dug-out ponds represents the fi rst phase of aquaculture in the state which has sustained for more than quarter of a century. Because of rapid expansion and intensifi cation, by 2002, the carp culture area increased to about 80,000 ha1 . Almost 98% of the carp culture in the state developed in- and around the largest fresh water lake in India, the Kolleru, which extends between the West Godavari and Krishna districts and is now recognized as the fi sh bowl of India.
