Inter-planting experiment of water spinach in the pond of cage-culturing loach

Inter-planting experiment of water spinach in the pond of cage-culturing loach was carried out. The results showed that yield and survival rate of loach per cage was 41.75 kg and 45.7%, respectively when water spinach inter-planted in the cage which culturing loach. Thus, production value per cage and income were 1303.26 RMB Yuan and 451.43 RMB Yuan, respectively and were higher that of control.
