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 ecological approach to mariculture of shrimp: Shrimp ranching fisheries
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1985)
Mariculture production in Japan has grown recently to nearly one million tons per year. Mariculture production in the shallow coastal waters of Japan mainly consists of eight species of finfish, six species of shellfish, ...
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 ...
The integrated use of artemia in shrimp farming
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1985)
The use of freshly hatched Artemia nauplii in penaeid hatcheries is a common practice, although a broader application of Artemia in shrimp farming is gaining more and more interest. In this regard, an integrated use of ...
The effects of manures and pelleted feeds on survival, growth and yield of Penaeus stylirostris and Penaeus vannamei in Panama
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries, Development Center, 1985)
Brackishwater ponds (0.8 m deep and 600 m2) on the Pacific Coast of Panama were stocked at 5/m2 with post-larval shrimp (1 cm, 0.05 g) collected from the wild. Species composition at stocking was 56% Penaeus vannamei, 33% ...
Overview of penaeid culture in the Americas
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1985)
The paper discusses the reasons behind the farming success of Ecuador, as well as the limitations associated with farming throughout the rest of the Americas. Emphasis is given to specific farming practices, management ...
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 ...
