Management of Recreational and Farm Ponds in Louisiana

A farm pond or recreational pond can serve many purposes: a source of food, an aesthetic enhancement to property, a sportfishing opportunity, a swimming area, wildlife habitat, or a reservoir for livestock, irrigation and fire fighting needs. The intended purpose or purposes should be well thought out before construction and stocking.

This publication reviews planning considerations and management recommendations relating to a number of potential uses for small ponds in Louisiana.
