7 WAYS TO CONTROL AND REDUCE THE RISK OF EHP

04/06/2023, 20:16

EHP (Enterocytozoon hepatopanaei) has been known for a long time (described by Tourtip in 2009), but recently it has been recognized as a major threat to the shrimp farming. EHP causes slow growth disease, although the mortality rate is low, it seriously affects the productivity of shrimp farming. View more

The vannamei shrimp could not have been a better saviour for the Asian shrimp industry in the early 2000. It was the perfect combination of the push-pull factor. View more

MICROBIAL GROWTH IN SHRIMP PONDS AS INFLUENCED BY MONOSILICIC AND POLYSILICIC ACIDS

16/07/2022, 09:30

In the aquaculture system, the microbial community plays a significant role in providing additional feed, enhancing nutrient utilization efficiency, reducing anoxic conditions, and minimizing environmental impacts. Several forms of Silicon (Si) are commonly presented in natural water as monosilicic acid and polysilicic acid. This research aimed to evaluate the concentrations of those acids in shrimp ponds and to determine the effect on microbial growth in both pond water and probiotic solution.
