EFFECT OF SUGAR MILL EFFLUENT ON ORGANIC RESERVES OF FISHY. AVASN MARUTHI AND S. RAMAKRISHNA RAOAbstract In the present study the physicochemical characteristics of sugar mill effluent, discharged from Tummapala sugar factory, Anakapalli (Andhra Pradesh), and their impact on local fish, Channa punctatus were observed.
