Schedule Visits

Visits Visit Date Remarks Status
1st Visit Date 14 Dec, 2022 The water is Pumped into the pond through fine filtration systems upto a depth of 3-4 feet. The water is treated with chlorine at 20ppm-30ppm and left for one week. The pond water is also treated with minerals and probiotic yeasts. Completed
2nd Visit Date 22 Dec, 2022 Stocking Density: The stocking density of shrimp post- Larvae is usually in the range of 70-100/m2 but can be as high as 120- 150/ m2 Completed
3rd Visit Date 29 Dec, 2022 Increase the water storage capacity of ponds - To reduce disease risks and over -reliance on water exchange, the pond's water storage capacity should be maintained by maintaining a minimum water level of 1.2 meters in the middle of the pond. Completed
4th Visit Date 04 Jan, 2023 Aerators are placed 3m away from the dykes and almost 40 m apart. Completed
5th Visit Date 11 Jan, 2023 Shrimp health matters: Poor quality shrimp post - larvae supplied by hatcheries,mortality in early DOC, stunted growth and diseases such as WSSV ,vibrio infections,black gill, white faeces and white gut, EHP , luminesense bacteria, filamentous algae. Completed
6th Visit Date 18 Jan, 2023 Sampling is done to estimate the mean body weight (MBW) , which is calculated by dividing the total weight by the number of shrimp. Completed
7th Visit Date 25 Jan, 2023 The latest technologies can even monitor the metabolism and heart rate of the stock. These insights enable farmers to take timely actions create an ideal environment for their aquafarms, yielding better results. Completed
8th Visit Date 27 Jan, 2023 The latest technologies can even monitor the metabolism and heart rate of the stock. Completed
9th Visit Date 01 Feb, 2023 Micro-bubble technology offers a safer, Chemical -free and low - energy alternative to existing water disinfection methods and less operating cost. Completed
10th Visit Date 08 Feb, 2023 Much of the technology used in aquaculture is relatively simple , often based on small modifications that improve the growth and survival rates of the target species, e.g. improving food, seeds, oxygen levels and protection from predators. Completed

Good Practices: Bio security: Certain biosecurity measures are carried out like bird netting, crab fencing etc... but most farms lack proper biosecurity
Bad Practices: Stocking:Quality L.Vannamei post-larvae PL-12 - PL-16 are procured from shrimp hatcheries after quality and PCR Tests. The Post-Larvae are transported from hatcheries to culture ponds by road and air,and should only be stocked after a acclimatisation
Suggestions Given:
Stocking Density: The stocking density of shrimp post- Larvae is usually in the range of 70-100/m2 but can be as high as 120- 150/ m2

Good Practices: Effective rules for increasing Shrimp growth: Providing quality feed&proper care &management Shrimp must be fed a quality and reliable diet to ensure rapid growth Proper water management Offering the best suppliments Using the best aeration solutions
Bad Practices: Shrimp culture techniques are influenced by shrimp culture: climate Location Land,water, electricity availability, and cost Transportation and cost credit availability and cost and payment terms Feed/fertilizer/ Availability and cost of probiotics.
Suggestions Given:
Increase the water storage capacity of ponds - To reduce disease risks and over -reliance on water exchange, the pond's water storage capacity should be maintained by maintaining a minimum water level of 1.2 meters in the middle of the pond.

Good Practices: Aeration: one to three single horse power paddle wheel aerators are usually used , depending on farm size and stocking densities.
Bad Practices: The aerators typically operate for 8-12 hours per day during the entire culture period and create water current for the accumulation of wastes in the centre of the pond and to increase the dissolved oxygen in the water column.
Suggestions Given:
Aerators are placed 3m away from the dykes and almost 40 m apart.

Good Practices: An Artificial intelligence - driven approach continuously monitors the farm operations and favours real-time analysis of culture, It helps farmers daily tasks- optimising feed, disease prediction and management and offering advice from time to time.
Bad Practices: Sensor- equipped drones can also collect data - on levels of salinity, dissolved oxygen, water pH and temperature, to name a few.
Suggestions Given:
The latest technologies can even monitor the metabolism and heart rate of the stock. These insights enable farmers to take timely actions create an ideal environment for their aquafarms, yielding better results.

Good Practices: Micro-bubble aeration technology uses a generator to produce microscopic bubbles which release free radicals and boost dissolved oxygen levels in water, allowing it to cleanse itself of waste products and increase productivity of seafood.
Bad Practices: Using this technology, our aim was to improve shrimp growth and to support the circulation of benificial bacteria known as Biofloc,
Suggestions Given:
Micro-bubble technology offers a safer, Chemical -free and low - energy alternative to existing water disinfection methods and less operating cost.

Good Practices: The systems and technology used in aquaculture has developed rapidly in the last fifty years. They vary from very simple facilities (e.g. family ponds for domestic consumption in tropical countries) to high technology systems
Bad Practices: Much of the technology used in aquaculture is relatively simple , often based on small modification that improve the growth and survival rates of the target species, e.g. improving food,seeds, oxygen levels and protection from predators.
