Abstract

This study was conducted to determine the correlation between fecundity with length and weight of Macrobrachium rosenbergii (de Man, 1879) at Batang Kayan, Lundu. The giant freshwater prawn was caught using traditional method such as ‘belat’, fishing rod and ‘bubu’ by the local fisherman. A total of 48 berried females were collected. The fecundity of 48 samples has been estimated through gravimetric approach. As fecundity was estimated, the relationships with female body size and weight have been expressed in linear regression with positive correlations. The total eggs number of giant freshwater prawn at Batang Kayan was from 7478 to 55,054. There is a strong correlation between fecundity and total length (r = 0.8008) and fecundity and total weight (r = 0.876) of berried femaleof giant freshwater prawn at Batang Kayan, Lundu, Sarawak.
