Pollution studies on Government fish seed farm-Maharajganj, Bhadohi: Physico-chemical analysis

Abstract

Government fish seed farm Vikarmpur, which is situated 1.5 km. distant from Maharajganj, Aurai, has been studied for pollution with special emphasis on physico-chemical analysis for all the four seasons. The various physico-chemical parameters were determined. The study indicates an increase in the pollution level in all the nine-pond water of the fish farm. The level of pollution was found to be maximum at brood pond site and it reached to maximum during summers. The chlorides Nitrate and TDS were well within the permissible range. The pond water contains high level of pH, alkalinity, BOD, COD, total suspended solid and total solids. The chromium exceeds the permissible limits at all the sampling stations.
