                         Juniper Publishers-Open Access Journal of Annals of Reviews & Research   Abstract This study was conducted to investigate the effect of linear and non-linear methods of estimating fish mortality on feed conversion ratio (FCR) and profitability of cage cultured   Oreochromis shiranus   (Makumba). Two treatments were used, designated as T 1   and T 2   and were replicated three times. In each cage, 105000 fish were stocked at an initial average body weight of 1.59±0.04g and cultured for 365 days. The fish was fed twice a day with formulated feed (36% Crude Protein) at 4-1% body weight with feed adjustments based on standing biomass from linear and non-linear estimated mortality. The results showed that there were significant differences between the two treatments on FCR . Final mean weight was 179.41±7.71g and feed convers...
