Fish farming is an ideal business idea for investors with available land, and it doesn’t always require a large body of water. You can start a fish farm either by creating fish ponds or investing in fish tanks; it’s a highly scalable business idea. Once you have the proper knowledge of fish raising, you will be able to decide the type of fish to raise. According to FinModelsLab, a well-run fish farm can produce a return on investment (ROI) of 15% to 40% annually, with many fish farmers achieving a full return on their investment within three to five years.
Fish such as tilapia, cod, trout, and catfish are popular because they are easy to raise and in high demand. Small-scale farms are the usual suppliers of fish in their local supermarkets and restaurants.
Other popular varieties of commercially-raised fish include:

Yellow Perch
Eel
Grass Carp
Tuna
Salmon

Not all fish are raised for food. Goldfish and koi are popular fish to farm as well. For non-food fish, focus on cultivating premium species that will fetch a higher price when you sell. Whether you are raising fish for food or not, adopting sustainable farming practices will be better for both your business branding and your long-term operational costs.
The decision as to which fish you want to raise will ultimately rely on your skill, financial capacity, market demand, and agro-climatic condition. This refers to the normal soil types, rainfall, temperature, and water availability that affect the type of vegetation in the area.

Companies and organisations need effective management to achieve business goals. There are different levels of management that aim to organise and coordinate the business functions of a company. If you're interested in becoming a manager, knowing about what a manager does can help you get an idea about the role. In this article, we discuss what management is and its unique characteristics, objectives, levels and functions.

The group project is a much-dreaded component of undergraduate courses, doubly so if students are expected to create their own project from scratch. However, instructors consistently return to the independent group project as an exercise that, if done properly, stimulates student inquiry and cooperation. In this post, I reflect on my experiences facilitating student-led group projects in a biology course and relate these experiences to the commonalities of independent group work across disciplines. I outline four common issues related to independent group projects, then provide the rationale for managing each issue to maximize learning outcomes.

A Jyotirlinga or Jyotirling or Jyotirlingam (Sanskrit: ज्योतिर्लिङ्ग) are shrines where Lord Shiva, is worshipped in the form of a Jyotirlingam. ‘Jyothi’ means ‘Radiance’ and Lingam, the Shiva Lingam-‘the mark or sign’ of The Almighty or the phallus symbol. Jyotir Lingam means the The Radiant sign of The Almighty. There are twelve traditional Jyotirlinga shrines in India.Lord Shiva first manifested himself as a Jyotirlinga on the night of the, Aridra Nakshatra thus the special reverence for the Jyotirlinga. There is nothing to distinguish the appearance, but it is believed that a person can see these lingas as columns of fire piercing through the earth after he reaches a higher level of spiritual attainment. There are twelve Jyotirlingas in India and they are spread all over India.

Triglycerides

Triglycerides are fats and oils
Fatty acid and glycerol molecules are the components that make up triglycerides
Fats and oils have a number of important functions in organisms: energy storage, insulation, buoyancy, and protection

 
 






 
Energy storage

The long hydrocarbon chains in triglycerides contain many carbon-hydrogen bonds with little oxygen (triglycerides are highly reduced)

So when triglycerides are oxidised during cellular respiration this causes these bonds to break releasing energy used to produce ATP

 

Triglycerides, therefore, store more energy per gram than carbohydrates and proteins (37kJ compared to 17kJ)
As triglycerides are hydrophobic they do not cause osmotic water uptake in cells so more can be stored

Plants store triglycerides, in the form of oils, in their seeds and fruits. If extracted from seeds and fruits these are generally liquid at room temperature due to the presence of double bonds which add kinks to the fatty acid chains altering their properties
Mammals store triglycerides as oil droplets in adipose tissue to help them survive when food is scarce (e.g. hibernating bears)

 

The oxidation of the carbon-hydrogen bonds releases large numbers of water molecules (metabolic water) during cellular respiration

Desert animals retain this water if there is no liquid water to drink
Bird and reptile embryos in their shells also use this water

The Internet of Things (IoT) has provided ways to improve nearly every industry imaginable. In agriculture, IoT has not only provided solutions to often time-consuming and tedious tasks but is totally changing the way we think about agriculture. What exactly is a smart farm, though? Here is a rundown of what smart farming is and how it's changing agriculture.
What is a Smart Farm?
Smart farming refers to managing farms using modern Information and communication technologies to increase the quantity and quality of products while optimizing the human labor required.
Among the technologies available for present-day farmers are:


Sensors: soil, water, light, humidity, temperature management


Software:  specialized software solutions that target specific farm types or applications agnostic IoT platforms


Connectivity: cellular, LoRa


Location: GPS, Satellite


Robotics: Autonomous tractors, processing facilities


Data analytics: standalone analytics solutions, data pipelines for downstream solutions

4. Parkinson’s Law
British historian Cyril Northcote Parkinson became famous for the phrase “work expands so as to fill the time available for its completion.” In other words, the amount of time you give yourself to complete a specific task is the amount of time it will take you to complete that task.
How it works:
This is not a time management technique per se. It’s a law that, when understood, can be applied as one of the most beneficial time management methods out there—but you will have to put in the work. That means working more efficiently in shorter bursts of time. Here are some time management tips:

Try working without a computer charger. This will force you to finish a project before your computer dies. 
Get it done early. Instead of finishing an essay by midnight, try to get it done by noon. 
Set a deadline. Give yourself a set time to do something—and then cut it in half.
Limit time for tasks. Give yourself only 20 minutes in the morning to answer emails.

Types of people this works for:

Procrastinators
People who work well under pressure

5. Time Blocking Method
Inventor Elon Musk is known for being productive. He manages his time so efficiently that he can work over 80 hours a week and still make time for himself. What’s his secret? Time blocking.

Edited -- To effectively lose fat and gain muscle at the gym, focus on a combination of strength training, cardio, and a balanced diet. Aim for at least two strength training sessions per week, incorporating exercises that work all major muscle groups, and include some cardio to burn calories. 



 








Strength Training:









Full-Body Workouts:
Prioritize compound exercises like squats, deadlifts, lunges, push-ups, and rows, which work multiple muscle groups simultaneously, leading to greater calorie burn and muscle growth.

Squats: Target the lower body and core, building strength and power.
Deadlifts: A powerful exercise for the entire posterior chain, including glutes, hamstrings, and back, boosting strength and metabolism.
Lunges: Engage the legs and glutes, improving balance and stability.
Push-ups: Work the chest, shoulders, and triceps, building upper body strength and endurance.
Rows: Focus on the back and biceps, promoting a balanced physique.










Progressive Overload:
Gradually increase the weight, reps, or sets you lift each week to challenge your muscles and promote growth.








Rest and Recovery:
Allow adequate rest between workouts to allow muscles to repair and rebuild. 



 














Cardiovascular Exercise:









Moderate-Intensity Cardio:
Incorporate activities like brisk walking, jogging, cycling, or swimming for 30-60 minutes most days of the week to burn calories and improve cardiovascular health. 



 












High-Intensity Interval Training (HIIT):
Alternate short bursts of intense exercise with periods of rest or lower-intensity exercise to maximize calorie burn in a shorter time frame. 



 












Examples of HIIT:
Burpees, mountain climbers, and kettlebell swings are great options for HIIT workouts. 



 














Nutrition:





Calorie Deficit: Consume fewer calories than you burn to promote fat loss. 



 




Protein Intake: Ensure adequate protein intake to support muscle growth and repair. 



 




Balanced Diet: Focus on whole, unprocessed foods, including lean protein, complex carbohydrates, and healthy fats. 



 




Hydration: Drink plenty of water throughout the day to support overall health and performance.
