Stephen Drummond Sedgwick Rainbow trout can be an excellent economic proposition for farming in temperate waters. The husbandry needed is simpler, and the fish take a year less than Atlantic salmon to grow to an equivalent size. The new, sixth edition of this popular handbook, which has become the standard guide for trout farmers, covers the latest developments and new opportunities particularly for rainbow trout farming in the sea. Processing and marketing are discussed together with ways and means of increasing profitability.
Special attention is given to the prevention of pollution and protection of the environment.
This thoroughly practical book provides not only a primer but a working manual for all trout farmers in fresh and salt water.
