What does "on-track" mean?

On-track means actual growth is 90–110% of the required pace. Ahead is >110%, behind is 70–90%, and critical is <70%.

How often should I check growth performance?

Monthly sampling is standard. Bi-weekly checks are recommended during critical growth phases or when problems are suspected.

What should I do if growth is behind?

Check water quality (temperature, DO, ammonia), feeding rates, feed quality, stocking density, and health status. Adjust the timeline if necessary.

Growth Performance Monitoring

Tracking actual growth against planned targets is essential for production management. Early detection of growth shortfalls allows timely intervention (adjusting feed, water quality, or stocking) before harvest delays become inevitable. This tool compares actual vs required average daily gain (ADG) to give a simple traffic-light status.
