Here while opening this discussion on board with dynamic group of professionals prefer everyone is well aware about pre and pro-biotics, its role and importance in fish farming also along with shrimp farming. Among many related, few open questions are,
1. What are prebiotics?
2. What are probiotics?
3. How do prebiotics and probiotics differ in their function?
4. What factors affect the effectiveness of prebiotics and probiotics in culture ponds?
5. What impact do probiotics have on water quality management?
I also welcome more queries from your end…..

A vaccination program is a tailored approach based on factors like bird type (broiler, layer, breeder), location, and local disease risk, but a typical schedule includes early vaccination against Marek’s Disease on day one. Subsequently, depending on the flock’s purpose, vaccinations for diseases like Newcastle Disease, Infectious Bronchitis, and Infectious Bursal Disease (Gumboro) are administered via eye drops or drinking water, with boosters as needed. Consulting a local veterinarian or bird supplier for a customized schedule is the most reliable approach.
