TROUT FARMING HANDBOOK Stephen Drummond Sedgwick REVISED EDITION 1976 FISH FARMING AQUACULTURE.

This revised edition of a standard work was written to bring the principles of trout culture up-to-date, not only for those who are coming fresh into the business, but for those others too busy producing fish to keep up with new ideas. New farming methods have been matched by ingenious equipment, but successful trout farming still rests on the knowledge of the farmer and his ability to grow and handle live fish. A whole catalogue of density-dependent fish diseases have followed in the wake of intensive production and a good 'fish master' must have a wide and thorough grasp of his trade. In preparing this edition the author has reviewed all the original text and added much new material, specifically relating to the use of floating cages, pollution, fish farm design, construction and equipment, processing, markets and economics. This is, therefore, a thoroughly practical book based on his many years of involvement in fish farming in many countries.
