The Essential Bottom-Feeder of Sustainable Polyculture

Introduce your market to Mrigal Carp, the efficient and ecologically vital bottom-dwelling species that completes the revered trio of Indian Major Carps in Bangladesh’s polyculture systems. Farmed alongside Rohu and Catla, Mrigal features an elongated, slender body perfectly adapted for foraging on detritus and benthic organisms at the pond’s bottom. This specialized feeding role not only ensures its efficient growth but also contributes significantly to maintaining a balanced and healthy pond ecosystem, reducing waste and improving overall water quality for all co-cultured species. The result is a fish with firm, smooth-textured flesh, a clean, mild flavor, and a well-balanced nutritional profile rich in protein, vitamins, and minerals.

Our Mrigal is cultivated using large-scale, sustainable polyculture techniques that maximize pond productivity and ecological synergy. Its natural efficiency as a bottom-feeder translates to lower supplemental feed costs and a reduced environmental footprint, making it a model of sustainable aquaculture. Reaching an ideal harvest size of 1-2.5 kilograms, the fish develops a lean, flavorful flesh with minimal intramuscular bones in the fillet, enhancing its culinary appeal and ease of consumption.

Processing follows stringent international export protocols in HACCP-compliant facilities. Each fish is meticulously gutted and cleaned to ensure purity, then rapidly blast-frozen to preserve its pristine quality, smooth texture, and fresh taste. Our multi-tiered quality assurance process rigorously checks for size consistency, appearance, and flavor integrity, guaranteeing that only premium-grade Mrigal reaches our clients.

Celebrated for its versatility, Mrigal’s firm yet tender flesh holds up beautifully to a wide range of cooking methods, including frying, baking, steaming, and most notably, in traditional slow-cooked curries and stews where its flavor deepens and complements rich spices. It enjoys steady, year-round demand across both rural and urban markets in South Asia and among diaspora communities worldwide, valued for its affordability, taste, and nutritional value. Packaged in export-ready, temperature-controlled cartons, our Mrigal Carp is guaranteed to arrive with its quality perfectly preserved, supported by the reliable, scalable production that Bangladesh’s advanced carp polyculture systems provide. This product is ideally suited for ethnic food retailers, supermarket chains, and food service providers seeking a consistent supply of a popular, sustainably farmed, and culturally significant freshwater fish.
