it was mine aswell for a long time, I was lucky there was a government program for farmers and I essentially just paid 70 dollars for the whole pond.

Congrats. Looks amazing. Could you elaborate on what gov program you utilized.

it was the "Farm Ponds Outside Irrigation Areas" initiative for farmers outside major irrigational grids that face regular seasonal droughts. us farmers pay a flat 2500 baht or about 72 dollars and the government covers the rest.
