Grass carp is one of the common fish, belongs to one of the freshwater fish, and belongs to the "four major domestic fish.". The growth rate of grass carp is relatively fast. However, grass carp can live in different living environments, and the specific growth rate in different environments is also different.
For example, the growth rate of grass carp living in wild rivers is different from that of grass carp living in artificial breeding environment. Compared with wild grass carp, the growth rate of cultivated grass carp is generally faster, because the surrounding environment can be adjusted artificially, so that various environmental factors are in a suitable state; It can also provide them with enough food to lay the foundation for their rapid growth. The wild grass carp may grow slower because the environment is not suitable or the food is not enough. In addition, there are some factors that can hinder the growth of grass carp, such as environmental pollution and so on. Especially for wild grass carp, environmental pollution is an important factor affecting their development, sometimes even leading to their death.
As mentioned above, the growth rate of grass carp is relatively fast. Grass carp grow faster under artificial breeding conditions, and they can grow a lot in a year. In the first year of breeding, their weight can increase by 2-3 kg. They gain the most weight in the second and third years, when they can gain three to four kilograms a year, or more. After that, their weight will gradually increase, but the rate of increase will be slower.
