Shrimp grown in biofloc systems with different carbon sources
Study shows biofloc has positive effects on the immune response of Pacific white shrimp juveniles and can result in increased resistance to the IMNV virus.
Health & Welfare
Study shows it is possible to improve shrimp production in low-salinity waters by correcting magnesium and potassium deficiencies.
Health & Welfare
Study shows biofloc has positive effects on the immune response of Pacific white shrimp juveniles and can result in increased resistance to the IMNV virus.
Health & Welfare
This study describes an amoebic parasite infection in Pacific white shrimp cultured in an anonymous shrimp hatchery. The diseased shrimp exhibited grossly reduced appetite, lethargy, respiratory distress, eroded carapaces and blackened gills.
Responsibility
This study evaluated intercropping production of silver pompano in a shrimp farm in Northwest India to determine its economic and technical viability.
Health & Welfare
Study results indicate that P. vannamei challenged with AHPND in biofloc had higher survival rates than shrimp challenged in clear water.
Aquafeeds
Existing dynamic models applied to the growth of Pacific white shrimp can describe and predict feeding behavior to help farmers achieve maximum benefits.
Health & Welfare
This study compared three types of RAS nurseries for shrimp: biofloc (BF), clear-water (CW), and hybrid RAS (HY). Results showed that differences between treatments in terms of shrimp survival, mean harvest weight, specific growth rate, and feed conversion ratio were not significant.
Health & Welfare
This study showed that the use of a hypersaline system for shrimp culture with minimal seawater replacement can produce results comparable to those obtained in marine or brackish shrimp farming systems.
Aquafeeds
Field trials evaluated inclusion levels of grain distillers dried yeast of 0 to 150 grams per kilo with excellent performance of shrimp during grow-out.
Health & Welfare
A study evaluated the production response of Pacific white shrimp fed diets containing increasing levels of grain distillers dry yeast in two growth trials.
Health & Welfare
This study evaluated the impact of feeding a commercial diet, top dressed with a commercial probiotic, to Pacific white shrimp in a biofloc-dominated tank system.
Health & Welfare
A series of experiments – including in vitro, in vivo and also field trials – investigated if a functional diet could reduce AHPND in Pacific white shrimp.
Health & Welfare
Study illustrates the range of salinity options for shrimp production in commercial-scale biofloc systems and found no significant differences in any shrimp production metric.
Health & Welfare
A study determined the zootechnical performance of Pacific white shrimp under different light regimes. Shrimp exposed to light had better zootechnical parameters than those with reduced or no exposure.
Aquafeeds
Results of this study show that automated feeding systems are significantly more efficient than hand feeding in shrimp production ponds and that increases in feed input, application of adaptive technology and training of people to maintain the feeding system must all be considered.
Health & Welfare
This study showed that a longer inoculation of probiotics will improve shrimp postlarvae growth and survival, and that a new technique developed for more accurately estimating postlarvae weight can significantly reduce the food that must be supplied.
