T1B Acqua S: probiotics for vannamei and Penaeus monodon farming

Listing ID #7385544

Today’s aquaculture is full of various challenges. Stress is caused in fish and shrimp by high stocking densities and intensive culture practices. Several antibiotics, pesticides, and disinfectants are used indiscriminately for disease control. Such applications contribute to the evolution and spread of drug-resistant strains of pathogenic bacteria, resulting in a negative impact on the environment and a risk to aquatic animal health. Disease outbreaks are becoming more common as a result of increased environmental (Abiotic) and aquatic (biotic) stress. Production is being reduced, posing a threat to aquaculture’s long-term viability. Excess algal blooms due to an overabundance of nutrients.

Water and soil probiotics contain microorganisms such as bacteria that are used to improve the water quality and soil conditions in aquaculture ponds. The use of water and soil probiotics in shrimp aquaculture can help to improve the water quality, soil conditions, and overall health of the shrimp, leading to increased productivity and reduced risk of disease outbreaks.
