The shrimp is the queen of the
seafood!

The peneid shrimp farming is an activity which began in
the seventies in Ecuador.
The most cultivated species in Latin America
are the white shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei), the blue shrimp (Litopenaeus
stylirostris) and in southeast Asia, the giant tiger prawn (Penaeus
monodon).

The larvae can be captured in the sea (wild larvae) or be produced in
hatchery starting from wild or maturation nauplii.
The differents hatchery units are: maturation, laying-hatching, larviculture,
algae production, artemia production
