A preliminary economic analysis for extensive and semi-intensive shrimp culture in South Carolina, U.S.A.
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1985)
South Carolina has some 28,500 ha of impounded coastal wetlands. These impoundments are remnants of the rice culture industry of the 19th century and are now of interest for waterflow management and possibly aquaculture. ...
The economics of different prawn and shrimp pond culture systems: A comparative analysis
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1985)
The paper aims to present a comparative economic evaluation of different pond culture systems for prawn (Penaeus monodon) and shrimp (P. indicus and P. merguiensis) using standard economic tools and methods of analysis. ...
Larval growth and survival optima for four species of penaeids from Australia, as indicated by their distribution and abundance in the field
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1985)
Prawn catches from tropical northern Australia are dominated by four species of prawns: Penaeus merguiensis, P. semisulcatus, P. esculentus and P. latisulcatus. Three of the species (P. merguiensis, P. semisulcatus and P. ...
The response of Penaeus monodon juveniles to varying protein/energy ratios in test diets
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1985)
The response of Penaeus monodon juveniles (0.71±0.11 g) to varying protein/energy ratios in test diets was determined. Purified diets consisting of different levels of protein, lipid and carbohydrates were formulated. Two ...
Imperatives for the future development of prawn culture in the Cochin backwater system (Kerala, India)
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1985)
A traditional system of prawn culture practised in the Cochin Backwater System, the largest backwater system in Kerala State, has an estimated yield of 4,000 tons from about 4,500 ha. Governmental investments to encourage ...
A new approach in intensive nursery rearing of penaeids
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1985)
The need for a nursery phase between the hatchery and the growing pond to avoid mortalities of young postlarvae, and provide a better assessment of stocked animals is general in crustacean aquaculture.
The Centre ...
The growth of a bialgal culture and its use as food for shrimp larvae
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1985)
The cultivation of the microalga Tetraselmis chuii with the protection of the extracellular products of Chlorella kessleri, grown in a bialgal culture, allows its development in outdoor tanks without special conditions of ...
Cause of musty flavor in pond-cultured penaeid shrimp
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1985)
In 1983, penaeid shrimp shipped into the United States from culture ponds in Ecuador were found to have an intense earthy-musty flavor which made them unmarketable. High concentrations of geosmin (trans, 1-10-dimethyl-1-9 ...
An improved strategy for building brackishwater culture ponds with iron pyrite soils in mangrove swamps
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1985)
The problems associated with acid sulfate soil limit the potential utilization of vast coastal areas of mangrove swamps for brackishwater aquaculture. There is an estimated 4.8 million ha of mangrove area in the ASEAN ...
Brackishwater shrimp culture in India and its impact on socio-economics
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1985)
Utilization of potential area for shrimp culture in the traditional system was very meager — just 1.8% of total estimated available area of 1.45 million ha. The traditional paddy and fish culture and paddy cum fish culture ...
