Dear Sanjay.
You can do both together. For aqua culture you need a pond. When you keep fishes & prawns, you have to replace part of the pond water daily with fresh water. The water you remove from the pond is contaminated with nitrates & nitrites due to fish excreta. This nitrate/nitrite rich water is very good for plants. More over once you have done the pond preparation & stocked the pond with fishes/prawns then there is not much work except feeding & replacing water daily.
For further details send me a private mail.

Hi sanjaypawar,
Prawn culture has good income potential while growing medicinal plant has reasonable income potential. Both are entirely different and hence you can come to a conclusion on your own.

Prawn culture needs more inputs and initial costs like digging of pond, feed, safety of prawn etc while medicinal plants need medium water usage and there will be buy back from pharma companies.
