Présentation de l'éditeur

Excerpt from Textbook of Pond Culture: Rearing and Keeping of Carp, Trout and Allied Fishes

Pond culture during the last decade has been developed more and more into an independent and important industrial branch of national economy. Its development at the same time led to a sharper division into two main fields: carp pond culture and trout culture. In spite of this the science of the entire pond industry, inclusive of artificial fish-culture as contained in this book, has remained equally important for the instruction of both the carp pond culturist and the trout grower. It will be useful for each of them to use the experiences of the other and to draw comparisons. General principles in both industrial branches are largely the same, also transitions in practice repeatedly erase the division to again form a whole: the pond industry in a larger sense.

It has become self-evident today that the small pond culturist, who is concerned only with the maintenance of fish, informs himself about the breeding of his fish, and that the lake and stream fishermen will repeatedly learn from the pond culture industry.
