The purpose of this research was to investigate the water quality index of Keerat Sagar pond at Mahoba district of Uttar Pradesh by using physico-chemical parameters. The samples were collected throughout the year from December (2002) to November (2003), and various hydrological parameters such as temperature, turbidity, pH, carbonate, bicarbonate, total alkalinity, chloride, dissolved oxygen and free carbon di-oxide were analyzed from the pond. The results obtained from all these parameters indicate that all the factors were within the permissible limits and the pond is suitable for the aquatic standing crop such as fish, prawn and shrimps culture.
