To get a solid embankment, soil to be used as a fish pond embankment soil shall be homogeneous and free of garbage such as wood, leaves, rocks, and others. Bund making good technique is a blend of activities to dig and pile up, so do not spend too much effort and money.
For example, to create a fish pond bund with a height of 1 m of soil deposits, if only just, then the cost to transport the soil would be great. In addition, during the dry season, the possibility can not be irrigated because the pond is located too high.
Likewise if pernatang pool made of soil excavation, in addition to the large cost incurred to dispose of land, will also make it difficult at the time of draining the pond because it was too low.
Thus, making a fish pond dikes with a combination of digging and stockpiling more profitable because more energy and cost savings. In addition, the pool will get to meet the technical requirements, which is easily dried and filled with water. In the dry season did not experience drought, but did not flood during the rainy season.
Step by step making a fish pond dykes are as follows:
1. Soil to be used for location perkolaman must be cleaned of grass, rocks and all sorts of organic and inorganic impurities.
2. Fitting propyl namely bamboo frame for ease of manufacture of the desired form of dikes.
3. Land of the top 15-20 cm thick layer of humus which is usually dug up and collected in one place. This is so that the fertile soil layer can be used as a basis for future pool. Moreover, if the excavated soil is usually fertile soil layer is precisely the pond will cause leaks if the bund was also buried as a fish pond.
4. So much to guarantee the power pool, it is wonderful in the land to be used as embankments made excavation with a depth of 50 cm and 50 cm wide as the ridge axis or axes.
5. Then backfilled soil from the excavation of new land to be used as a pond. So that land does not slide, then the top pernatang grass should be planted.
Excavation of land should not be indiscriminate, try to subgrade elevation difference between the fish pond inclusion door and door expenditure ranged from 20-30 cm. The purpose is to not complicate the disposal of water. If the soil to be excavated to create a bund or less sufficient, it needs to find other eligible land. However, if the land is excessive it must be removed to another place so as not to interfere.
At the time of accumulation, the soil should not trampling due to uneven soil compaction that would lead to not compact the soil embankment. In addition, organic and inorganic impurities such as stones, trash, wood and others should be discarded. Making fish ponds should be done at the start or near the end of the rainy season.
Because land is often experienced depreciation, then the high embankment needs to be added 10% of the desired height. After the dike so that the fertile soil humus was collected should be returned to the pond fish.
Do not directly enter the water at the ready-made pond, but wait a while until the ridge becomes compact. Water intake should also be gradual, not all at once. Meanwhile, to keep the soil bund no landslide, at the top and sides coated with a layer of grass embankment.
