ABSTRACT
This study was performed to elucidate the wintering effects with and without Greenhouse Cover on growth and survival rate of Catla catla fingerlings in polyculture system containing Labeo rohita and Cirrhinus mrigala during twelve-week period. The data obtained was subjected to Multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA) to find out the statistically significant difference (p<0.01) between two treatments for their response to fish growth. The post-hoc test revealed that growth of Major carps was significantly higher with greenhouse as compared to without greenhouse (at p < 0.05). Growth and survival rate of Catla catla were found more pronounced as compared to the other two carps under greenhouse cover. The results facilitated the objectives of this research that greenhouse cover can be applied practically for improvement in the growth and survival rate of Catla catla fingerlings during winter season.
