RANCANGAN SEDIMEN TRAP SEBAGAI ALAT BANTU LAJU SEDIMENTASI DI KOLAM BUDIDAYA IKAN PATIN

Abstract

The outreach activity on sediment trap design aims to provide information and skills as well as providing assistance to the community in particular as well as knowing the design of sediment traps as a tool to aid sedimentation rates in catfish cultivation ponds in Rumbai Bukit Village. Intensive catfish farming activities often cause problems with water quality and increase sediment at the bottom of ponds. The application of sediment traps as a tool to aid sedimentation rates in catfish cultivation ponds has been used to monitor water quality during catfish cultivation. Water quality measurements in pool 1 showed temperatures ranging from 32-35 0C, pH 6.8-7.5, TDS 9-19 mg/L, and sedimentation rate 38-140 ml/L. In pool 2, the temperature ranges from 31-34 0C, pH 6.0-7.1, TDS 112-197 mg/L, and sedimentation rate 7-30 ml/L. In pond 2, the water quality conditions are better than in pond 1. This variation occurs because ponds 1 and 2 are located far apart and there is less vegetation in pond 1 than in pond 2. Overall, extreme weather conditions in the dry season greatly affect the quality of fish water. cultivated catfish. Enthusiasm for Pokdakan Mina Usaha in Rumbai Bukit Subdistrict is high (reaching 85.5%). Outreach activities on the design of sediment traps as a tool to aid sedimentation rates in catfish cultivation ponds can be continued and their use disseminated.
