unknown. The study was undertaken in South 24 Paraganas district of West Bengal with an aim to study the adoption of Composite Carp Culture technology. Primary data were collected from 142 fish farmers practicing compositecarp culture using structured schedule.

Supplementary feeding with pelletfeed and careful disposal of dead animals were the most widely adopted practices in carp culture by the farmers. A positive and significant correlation of education level, exposure to mass media, knowledge level, extension contact and experience with level of adoption of composite carp culture technology was observed.
