Farming kuruma shrimp in Japan
Kuruma shrimp (Penaeus japonicus) are produced on a small scale. This species can tolerate transportation over long distances and without water.
Changing paradigms in shrimp farming, part 6
The final factor in developing a heterotrophic system is the amount of organic material being fed to a pond, and the carbon per nitrogen balance of that material.
Shrimp production simulation models
The evolution of computers has led to the development of mathematical simulation models to help solve complex problems.
Making the grade: A comparison of shrimp grading systems
To reap the benefits of shrimp grading systems, processors must choose a method combining accuracy and efficiency with gentle handling.
Australian farmers diversify with local shrimp species
Australia has a diverse and abundant fauna of local shrimp but only P. monodon, P. japonicus and P. merguiensis are farmed there.
AHA says: Eat seafood twice a week
The American Heart Association recently introduced its new dietary guidelines, which now recommend that people eat seafood twice a week.
Shrimp product diversification in Japan and the United States during the 1990s
A study of shrimp exports showed increasing product diversification and demand for value-added shrimp products.
Prospects for yellow perch aquaculture
While other species progressed to commercialization faster than yellow perch, the move to bring the fish to commercial status is well founded.
Broodstock management of summer and southern flounder
Along the eastern U.S., two highvalue flatfish species – summer flounder and southern flounder – are top candidates for commercial grow-out.
Aquaculture of pelagic fish, part 3
Supporting the global growth of pelagic fish aquaculture will require more efficient, cost-effective and environmentally sustainable methodology.
Culture of red snapper
At the Gulf Coast Research Lab in Mississippi, red snapper have been reared during the past three summers and released offshore for two years.
Bullfrog farming: Comparison of inundated and semi-dry ongrowing methods
Bullfrog farming has developed from extensive, single-crop, low-yield methods to intensive, economically viable, multiple-crop systems.
Chlorine and fish processing
Chlorine is used in fish processing to prevent contamination by waterborne pathogens and to reduce the incidence of cross-contamination.
Advances in tilapia broodstock management
Female tilapia broodstock spawn asynchronously, producing only 2,000 eggs per clutch. Hatchery operators often run into low seed quantity and quality problems.
Evolution of processed tilapia products in the U.S. market
Processed tilapia is continuing to improve as international growers upgrade their production, processing and transportation systems.
Design considerations for a modern shrimp-cooking facility
Grupo Granjas Marinas built a shrimp-cooking facility adjacent to its processing facility in Honduras and replaced its refrigeration equipment.
