Abstract

Considerable monthly variations were observed in soil properties and water
qualities of two ponds during a six-mo:ith period. The textural class of soil of
.Pond 1 was silt loam and that of Pond 2, in general, silty day loam. The in-wash
of silt, etc., with the large volume of surface run-off of rain water from the surrounding
agriculture farm, and the suspension of the dead self-vegetation of the
pond, resulted in the lowest value of transparency in Pond 1 being recorded during
July; whereas, the relatively abundant growth of phyto-plankton in Pond 2 was
responsible for reduced transparency there in May and again in August, as compared
with the same in the remaining four months of the study period. The pH of
bottom soil and of water indicated that Poivd 2 is more suitable for fish culture
