Abstract
Aquaculture development over the past 50 years
has been facilitated largely by the application of science and the introduction
of new technologies. Selection of potential and suitable site is the first and
foremost step for successful brackish water aquaculture. Adequate engineering
and water quality parameters (such as pH, alkalinity, dissolved oxygen, total
ammonia, unionized ammonia, nitrate, total nitrogen, phosphorus, BOD, COD and
electrical conductivity), soil quality and topography are the most important
parameters of a good site. LANDSAT ETM + 60m resolution imagery as revealed the
various land forms as well as land use, land cover features in a part of
srikakulam, vizianagaram, Visakhapatnam, east Godavari, west Godavari delta
coastal belt.The land use/land cover as indicated that the aquaculture has
phenomenally increased by 9,293.5 ha during the 9 year period at the same time
, the crop land which occupied about 29,104 ha in 2001 has been reduced to
14,153.9 ha by 2010 mainly due to encroachment of aquaculture. The 5 districts
of along coastal area lands which are designated as ‘aquaculture ponds’ are
grouped in 2perioditic classes based on the intensity of convension.
