Abstract

SEAFDEC/AQD has indeed good news for tiger shrimp growers. A new culture system, an environment-friendly scheme, that AQD has been verifying yielded consistent bumper harvests. Results of three consecutive runs gave a total net profit of almost P1.7 million. The runs were conducted at AQD’s Brackishwater Station in Dumangas, north of Iloilo City. Tiger shrimp were stocked at 25 per m2 in the first two runs and at 40 per m2 in the third. About 15 tons of shrimp were harvested from the three ponds that have average areas of 0.8 ha. Average survival rate was noted as 77%.
