For a very long time now, plant-derived compounds have long been used in the organic treatment of many diseases in fish farming.
A lot of plants have been used to investigate the effects of
their compounds to enhance the immune responses and increase the protective
abilities against diseases in fish farming
Many studies have shown that essential oils, extracts and
isolated substances from plants might be an important and alternative treatment
against diseases in fish farming.
The medicinal plants can be used not only against diseases
but even more so, as growth promoters, stress resistance boosters and for prevention of infections.
Also, these medicinal plants
provide a cheaper source for treatment and greater accuracy than the
inorganic or chemical treatments without causing toxicity.
To date, more than 60 plant species have been studied for use
to control different disease in fish farming.
I'm going to show you one of the best organic combination
for treatment and prevention of diseases in fishes.
I prefer to use preventive measures because it's less
expensive than curative measures. You should know that as a wise fish farmer,
you shouldn't let disease creep in first before you start taking preventive measures . You should
prepare to keep all diseases far away from your fishes.
