description |
The purpose of this study was fourfold as follows: Firstly, to elucidate
problems related to shrimp culture in Kung Krabaen Bay. Secondly, to study
trends in water quality in the Kung Krabaen Bay. Thirdly, to determine the
perception of the shrimp farmers on a number of matters about the Seawater
Irrigation Project, and finally to determine the most appropriate methods for
managing the new water resource associated with the Seawater Irrigation Project.
The methodology for the study consisted of field observations, questionnaire
surveys, sampling and analysis of water and wastewater, and discussions with
some relevant authorities and NGOs connected with the study. The field work was carried out from September 1996 to September 1997 in Kung Krabaen Bay.
Sampling of water in the shrimp ponds was carried out over two cropping seasons
with each crop consisting of ten ponds. Each water sample was analysed for
Dissolved Oxygen, Biochemical Oxygen Demand, Nitrite, Nitrate, Ammonia, pH,
Salinity, Water Temperature and Suspended Solids. The interview form was pretested
in October 1996, improved, and real data was gathered beginning February
1997. A total of 88 respondents were used in the social survey. All data were then
analysed for frequencies, means, standard deviation, and percentage. In addition,
the t-test and one-way ANOVA were employed to compare water quality values. |
