Proper water circulation in aquaculture ponds, Part 2
The stratification of a pond limits the supply and availability of oxygen to the upper strata of the water column. At night, this limited oxygen reserve
Brazil study results encouraging for injector Biofloc technology systems represent a new alternative for shrimp culture. These systems utilize minimal to zero water exchange and improve water quality
The inevitable pH fluctuations of aquaculture pond water Aside from temperature and dissolved oxygen, pH is likely the most commonly measured water quality variable in aquaculture.
Efficiency of mechanical aeration Mechanical aerator are used increasingly in aquaculture because aeration can greatly increase the amount of production possible per unit area or volume of water
Natural feed additive improves shrimp productivity White spot syndrome (WSS), one of the main causes of the stagnating shrimp industry in the 1990s, continues to affect production in Mexico, Central America
On-site diagnostic kit identifies WSSV in shrimp With the advance of its production and marketability, aquaculture has become an essential source of food and livelihoods worldwide
Indoor-raised shrimp find potential market in Kentucky test By growing shrimp in a closed building, producers can dramatically increase biosecurity, produce shrimp more consistently, grow shrimp year-round
Probiotics benefit Pacific white shrimp challenged with AHPND Early mortality syndrome (EMS) is a management syndrome. A combination of adverse factors in nutrition, biosecurity, host physiology, and especially microbial
Limited decomposition enhances PCR detection of AHPND Vibrio in shrimp Reports have been issued over the past several years regarding the presence of acute hepatopancreatic necrosis disease (AHPND) in various countries
Genetic variation for resistance to WSS, AHPND in Pacific white shrimp The authors conducted a preliminary analysis of data from experimental trials performed in 2014 to evaluate whether there is genetic resistance to WSS and AHPND
Four AHPND strains identified on Latin American shrimp farms Acute hepatopancreatic necrosis disease (AHPND), also commonly known as Early Mortality Syndrome (EMS), is a serious, major global disease of farmed shrimp
From forest to plate, a shrimp redefining ‘farmed’ Selva Shrimp, produced in harmony with mangrove forests in Vietnam, makes believers out of discerning buyers.
Genetics key to maximum growth rate for shrimp Shrimp growth rate is considered the primary factor in affecting pond profitability in typical shrimp farming under normal production conditions
Cargill announces one-of-a-kind automated shrimp feed Cargill has introduced a new precision shrimp feed that it says will revolutionize the shrimp industry. Precision feed improves feed efficiency, survival rates
Focus on gut health increases aquaculture productivity Establishment of healthy gut microflora from feed additives has positive economic benefits. A healthy gut microflora is a key approach for successful
Twin screw technology for better extruded feeds Controlling SME benefits production of high quality shrimp feed pellets. Extruders are more efficient than pellet presses in cooking feed ingredients through me
The digestibility of hydrolyzed soy protein Alternative feed ingredient promotes growth and immune responses in Pacific white shrimp - is the most important cultured shrimp species in the world
Determining safe levels of ammonia and nitrite for shrimp culture Adult Amazon river prawns, Macrobrachium amazonicum, the native freshwater prawn species with the greatest potential for aquaculture production in Brazil.
New disease detected in Vannamei shrimps Visakhapatnam: A new virus among Vannamei shrimps, hitherto known only to Thailand and Vietnam, has been detected by the department of Marine Living Resources
Chemical and physical factors that affect the biological growth of shrimp In order L. Vannamei can grow optimally, it needs a place to live that can provide state physics, chemistry, and biology is optimal.
