What kind of fish is the wheat ear fish in the field ditch? What is the economic value? This fish is very common in rural rivers and ditches, and it is also very popular with everyone because it tastes very good, especially the wild one. The wheat ear fish is a very common small freshwater fish that is found in rivers and lakes in my country from the Heilongjiang Basin in the north to Guangxi, Yunnan and other places in the south.
As a typical small fish, the wheat ear fish is generally between 3.7 and 10 centimeters in length and has a certain ornamental value. However, due to its large number and very common appearance, it does not belong to the " Stunner". Wheat fish can be eaten. It tastes better when fried or pan-fried. It is golden and crispy. One bite is really a treat. In the past, the wheat ear fish was considered a wild fish, and like the chopping board fish (snake fish), it did not have much economic value. The wheat ear fish is also very capable of adapting to the environment.
The wheat ear fish is also very capable of adapting to the environment. It can survive normally in a water environment of 1~35℃. The most suitable water temperature for growth is 18~ 25℃. May every year is the peak spawning period for wheatear fish. At this time, the water temperature is often above 20°C, which is the optimal growth temperature for wheatear fish.
From the perspective of feeding habits, the wheat ear fish is an omnivorous fish, feeding on plankton, insects, rotifers, cladocerans, buds of aquatic plants and organic debris in the water. The habit of "not being picky about food" gives the wheatear fish a stronger survival ability and a wider living range. In winter, when most fish such as carp enter hibernation, wheatear fish can still eat normally, which can be described as "full of wolfishness".
The practice of most farmers is to use wheat ear carp as a breeding fish species, that is, during the breeding process, it is paired with bulk freshwater fish such as carp, crucian carp, grass carp, etc., which plays an icing on the cake. In this way, while harvesting a large amount of fish at the end of the year, we can also obtain additional benefits from wheat ear fish. Make timely adjustments to supply for its growth
Sometimes the fish has poor appetite, or its demand for nutrients is relatively large, so we need to make timely adjustments to supply for its growth. When the fry are almost grown, we need to change the water in the pond every once in a while, so as to provide it with a relatively clean and tidy environment.
When we carry out the prevention and control of diseases and insect pests of wheat ear fish, we must carry out prevention and control based on such a principle. If there are any pests or diseases, they should be dealt with in time. If there are no pests or diseases, they should also be controlled.
Because tadpoles and other organisms that damage the growth of fry may appear in the pond at any time, we must purchase pesticides in time to kill them. Because the power of pesticides is limited, it is impossible to deal with all these natural enemies. We need to fish manually and try to provide a better environment for the cultivation of wheat ear fish. There are many aquariums that use wheat ear fish as bait for carnivorous fish
As for the economic value of wheat ear fish, it is not great. First of all, there are many kinds of fish and it is impossible to carry out large-scale breeding. Secondly, the individuals of Wheatear are too small, and artificial breeding does not have enough feed money; and the other is that Wheatfish has relatively high requirements for water quality, which can also be said to be a barometer to measure whether the local water quality is up to standard. The water quality of artificial breeding waters is difficult to meet the needs of wheat ear fish; the last thing is the price of wheat ear fish.
Nowadays, the price of wheat fish is only about 10 yuan/catty, which is not expensive, and artificial breeding is of little significance. Moreover, once the wheatear fish is artificially cultured, its unique fragrance may be gone.
Wheatfish are not useless. They are the main raw material for fishmeal in livestock feed. Wheatear is also an excellent bait for ducks in large-scale duck farm ponds. There are also many aquariums that use wheatear fish as bait for carnivorous fish. From the value point of view, the value of wheat fish that has not been deeply processed is not too high
Every object has its own value. If you cannot find its value, naturally someone will find its value. Just like being a human being, maintain a positive and optimistic attitude for a long time, continue to learn and reflect on yourself, and slowly you will find that your value will become higher.
Wheatfish is the smallest fish in the entire carp family and the most common fish in my country, although they are quite annoying to fishing friends. However, wheat ear fish does also give many friends a happy time in their childhood. However, relatively speaking, the wheat ear fish is also the fish with the lowest economic value in the entire carp family.
In short, since there are not many wild wheatfish left, most of them on the market are artificially cultured. From the value point of view, the value of wheatfish that has not been deeply processed is not too high.
