Floating cage nursery culture system for Penaeus monodon
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1985)
The use of floating cages as nursery for Penaeus monodon postlarvae was tried at the Batan, Aklan Substation of the SEAFDEC Aquaculture Department. The cages were made of bamboo and measured 2 × 5 × 1.5 m (effective volume ...
Role of bacteria and meiofauna in the productivity of prawn aquaculture ponds
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1985)
Detrital food chains, based on the use of manures and compost have been used in aquaculture for centuries. Heterotrophic bacteria convert organic detritus into protein and thus constitute an important food source in ponds. ...
The use of microencapsulated feeds to replace live food organisms in shrimp hatcheries
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1985)
An adequate supply of hatchery produced shrimp fry is the major constraint to the intensification and growth of shrimp culture practices. If even 20% of the more than 500,000 ha of the world's existing tropical and ...
A review of the diseases of cultured penaeid shrimps and prawns with emphasis on recent discoveries and developments
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1985)
The development of the commercial culture of penaeid shrimps and prawns has been accompanied by the occurrence of diseases of infectious and noninfectious etiologies. Many of the important penaeid diseases are caused by ...
Economics of shrimp culture in Asia
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1985)
There is a common belief that the demand for shrimp is so strong that the future of shrimp culture is very bright. However, there is a problem here. The Japanese market for shrimp has been expanding over the past 20 years, ...
Overview of penaeid shrimp culture in Asia
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1985)
Marine shrimp farming is a century-old practice in some Asian countries. Past sluggish development of the industry is mainly due to the inadequacy of hatchery technology resulting in inconsistent and insufficient supply ...
Economics of penaeid culture in the Americas
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1985)
Shrimp culture in the Americas began in the early 1970's and has experienced rapid growth in some Latin American countries. Currently, Latin America produces one-third of all cultured shrimp with Ecuador as the leading ...
Advances in shrimp culture in China
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1985)
Shrimp experimental ecology studies and the shrimp farming industry in China developed rapidly in the 1970's, and great strides have been made in the mass production of shrimp fry and the growing-out of marketable size ...
Penaeid larval culture using microencapsulated diets
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1985)
Whilst it has been possible for many years to feed postlar-val penaeids successfully on artificial diets, problems of nutrient leaching, particle breakdown, and water fouling have prevented the use of such diets for early ...
