Present study deals with the physicochemical status of Kundrala medium project at Mukhed in Nanded District of Maharashtra with special reference to the Primary productivity. The primary productivity were determined for a period of two years from June 2016 to May 2018. In the present investigation seasonal variations in the primary productivity were minimum in the winter season, moderate in the rainy season and highest in the summer season during the both years. The annual average of GPP varied from spot A70.72 to 160.0 mgC/m3/hr, 71.0 to 161.4 mgC/m3/hr at spot B, 69.5 to 156.3 mgC/m3/hr at Spot C and 71.5 to 160.5 mgC/m3/hr at Spots D dutring the year of 2016 to 2017 and in the next annual average of GPP varied from 69.72 to 158.5 mgC/m3/hr at Spot A, 68.75 to 157.25 mgC/m3/hr at spot B, 66.3 to 154.2 mgC/m3/hr at spot C and 69.7 to 157.5 mgC/m3/hr at spot D respectively. The correlation of GPP with some of the physicochemical parameters. Hence the present water body is found unpolluted during these two years and the water is used for water supply for nearby localities and also for irrigation purposes and for economic development and also used for aquaculture.
