Sediment quality affects shrimp physiology in New Caledonia research
The sediment quality of production pond bottoms has long been recognized as a factor that influences pond water quality and aquatic animal production.
Health & Welfare
Seasonal pathologies reduce the profitability and sustainability of the shrimp-farming industry in New Caledonia. A study was therefore conducted to estimate the effects of polyculture of blue shrimp with goldline rabbitfish or mullet on production performance and environmental quality.

Responsibility
Shrimp aquaculture farm managers suspect pond bottom degradation and sediment accumulation as possible causes for production decreases.
