i am not very keen into agriculture myself..but i had this friend who works in the department of agriculture..he did some  consulting for my company...basicly he thought me what i know about agriculture because a few years back my singaporean partner was interested in doing an agriculture project Organic farming
and i looked around for some one experienced to do a viability study on this venture
so found this guy out.......
too bad he is not in lowyat net....may be if any of you are interested i could give you his email but i have to ask him first ok....

ParaOptical...

Thanks for the knowledge sharing session at Taman Connaught! Really appreciate your help ! notworthy.gif

I tried looking for information online and i don't think there's a lot of information that can actually help people to start up... Perhaps you might want to put all these information you know online smile.gif

Anyway... now my first aim is to look for a land .. Preferably with water source laugh.gif

Paraoptical.... I roughly gave him the specification... He seems to know what I'm talking about... He has done quite a lot of work for fish farms before it seems haha..

Also he said he can do the pump as well... biggrin.gif Is there anything special about the pump other than able to control the speed ?

I'll be able to get a quotation from him tommorrow... then you go contact him la if it's cheaper.. smile.gif

HI Para,

Most of the things i got it from the same place at PWTC smile.gif

HEre's what i have:-

1. LEaflets on Mixed Farming Production System
2. Leaflets on Sistem Perladangan Campuer Berasaskan Tanaman Padi Aerobik
3. Leaftlets on New Cost Effective Feed for Red Tilapia.

There's also two technologies on fish feeding which i find are ridiculous inventions. Too expensive and not useful.

The feed for red tilapia is actually in production for small scale. I suppose if you buy like 3 kg a month they will have supplies. smile.gif

What fish are you planning to farm ???

Anyway, if you guys want to setup an information centre, i could put up a website where everyone can post information...

not necessary a bigger area. depends on how you rear the fish...

too big the area also no point as you cant make all the fish "exercise"

PAra... is there anymore land available near your area ??? YOur area is also within my reach... smile.gif

yeah because of the spring water...
fish will be better and save cost...

my farm is at Hulu Langat.


though its an info center but we need to organise it properly.
rearing tilapia could be a choice if i can market it to the right place.

yeah i saw those above.

funny thing about the expo is that cant commercialise it anytime soon so i dont understand why they display a commercial contact no. wasting time and space.

i think that one is from MARDI about the fish feed. i might go and ask and might try and buy to test it out.

about the information centre hope you can start a simple website or something if possible ?

how is the fibreglass coming ? about the area i dont think Langat would be a good place for you except you are ready to pay about RM 200k per acre ?

The guy told me he can do the tanks for about 5k.... if more can get cheaper deal... also the thickness of this tank is 6mm.. the guy was commenting that if it's less that 6mm might not hold the water plus 300kg fishes..

About the pump he's having problem calculating the pressure to make the water flow... he needs more time ... smile.gif

Newbie - to Lowyat as well as to Aquaculture.
Have always been wanting to find out more about Aquaculture, and thought this thread was the best thus far.
Have been looking at MalaysiaLand for some time already, STAC as well.
In fact, today (29th May) Star Paper, someone wanted to sell his aquaculture business in Semenyih. Check biz for sale.

I'm interested in the next meeting/get together. Always believe people with same ideas should rub shoulders together.

Let me know.
cheers.

Hi,

Not sure about the semenyih one but my friend (someone dealing with antibiotics for fishes and prawns) told me that have to becareful when buying ponds for prawn farming. Some areas are infected with disease.

havent found buyers yet. still early. maybe in 3 mths time will start looking...
harnessing the energy he meant was relative. he meant using gravity and nature to get water to the tanks so save on utility.

actually its a good idea. but my pumps and filters are there for different reasons and the tanks do have a pipe.

dude the water looks a bit cloudy... is it normal to be like that? smile.gif or is it reflecting your roof's colour
