Major culture issues in 2018
• Less seed (PL) survival
• Slow growth- High FCR
• Abrupt bloom / water color / primary productivity
• Gill choke/ Brown gill/ Black gill
• Running mortality
• Body deformity (cramping, bamboo shrimp)
• White gut/ White faeces
• EHP
WSSV
Still major damager

What farmers did!!
![Page 6: When carrying capacity exceeded in shrimp farmingaquaexpoguayaquil.cna-ecuador.com/.../uploads/2019/11/8-Manoj-Sh… · When carrying capacity exceeds in shrimp farming Dr Manoj.M.Sharma](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070710/5ec669f4eb1c3f0938679fc5/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Blame game
• Seed quality- Brood stock, Hatchery practices, PL quality
• Feed quality- Company, Composition and Competition
• Probiotics and health products- Quality, unethical marketing
• Farm management- Biosecurity and farm protocol
• Technicians- knowledge, field experience, service ethics

Gujarat fact file• Gujarat is the second largest shrimp producing state in India.
• Monodon era 1995 to 2009.
• Vannamei era 2009 to 2018.
• Gujarat emerged as one of the most productive and sustainable shrimp farming state with 95% success.
• Gujarat USP was in bigger size shrimp production 30 - 45 gms.
• Gujarat major production range was big size till 2016, but in year 2017 the farmers suffered slow growth and major harvest was in 25 gms. First glimpse of down trend.
• First half of 2018 , very bad start 85% of ponds affected with WFD, EHP, RMS leading to crash harvest at 15 -20 grams size .
• Farming fraternity in total shock!!!

SLUDGE REMOVAL THEORY
- Blessing or Curse??• Pond specific - May be working for pond with different techniques and
methods of sludge removal.
• Creek – Is it safe for long term sustainability as sludge is the biggest
contributor for organic load.
• For shrimp farming water intake and water exchange is a continuous process.
• Whether is it safe to remove the sludge into the same water source.
Recommendation:
There should be separate area for sludge bed and its treatment. Proper care should be
taken during disposing or recycling.

Perfect Disease Recipe
• High stocking density
• High salinity
• High organic load
• High water Temp.

Eye Opener
During post harvest analysis of MAPL farms in year 2016, we were surprisedto see and compare production data of our own two sites with markeddifferences in production and profitability.
After detail study we have found that the only difference was source of water.Rest all the protocols and farm inputs were same.
This has prompted us to carry out further studies on bigger scale.
Therefore, we selected four sites with different locations for comparativestudies.

Case Study in 2017
• Old Pond – Old Creek at village Saras, Olpad, Gujarat, India
• New Pond – Old Creek at village Mandroi, Olpad, Gujarat, India
• New Pond – New Creek (high saline) at village Kotda, Bhavnagar, Gujarat, India
• New Pond – New Creek (low saline) at village Bhonang, Roha, Maharashtra India

Conclusion
• The out come of the study was an eye opener, even for me as a farmer.
• With the constant inputs and same farm management, it rendered highly
significant result showing production success from 62.5% to 95% at different
locations.
• The study clearly point out “what matters is organic matter”.
• The health of the shrimp is directly related to the source of water.
• For the success of shrimp farming carrying capacity of pond and source water
plays a pivotal role.
![Page 28: When carrying capacity exceeded in shrimp farmingaquaexpoguayaquil.cna-ecuador.com/.../uploads/2019/11/8-Manoj-Sh… · When carrying capacity exceeds in shrimp farming Dr Manoj.M.Sharma](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070710/5ec669f4eb1c3f0938679fc5/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Suggestions • With the drive to produce more, shrimp farmers should seriously consider carrying capacity of pond
v/s source of water.
• Sludge removing theory- Sludge should never be released directly to the same source of incoming
water. Design ETP and sludge pits for the same.
• In the affected areas farmers should lower production by reducing stocking densities. Operate only
50% of the ponds each time and rotate the cycle.
• Encourage farmers group/ club/ association/ society for mutual cooperation.
• Finally, if you have the art and science to produce shrimp, then go in isolation.
You will definitely have a good chance.

Shrimp farming - Fact file
oWorld over shrimp farming started with Traditional method (1970-80)
oThe developing phase- extensive and modified extensive (1985 -95)
oThe scientific Era with High production systems (1995- 2005)
o Intensive production systems (2005-2015)
oSuper intensive era 2015…….
Except India and Ecuador most of the shrimp farming countries are
struggling to produce
What next ??
![Page 30: When carrying capacity exceeded in shrimp farmingaquaexpoguayaquil.cna-ecuador.com/.../uploads/2019/11/8-Manoj-Sh… · When carrying capacity exceeds in shrimp farming Dr Manoj.M.Sharma](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070710/5ec669f4eb1c3f0938679fc5/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Fact file of Ecuador oEcuador is producing close to 550,000 tons from 220,000 hectare
oAverage production per ha is 2500 kg per ha
oSay with increase in production 4000 kg /ha Ecuador will produce close to 0.9
million tons.
oAlready struggling to sale 550,000 tons- imagine selling 1 million ton
oGetting less price compare to 2015
o Increasing cost of production and less profit margin for farmers
oWill it be practical and feasible for industry to produce more!

Take away points ……
• Congratulations to Ecuador, you are already on top of the world.
• Don’t get carried away with the success, keep faith in sustainable shrimp farming
practices.
• Ecuador only needs improvements and efficiency in farm management practices.
Please continue your present sustainable stocking modules
• Intensification and sustainability don’t go together
• Learn from the failures of Asian countries, don’t repeat the same mistakes
• Science and Technology alone cannot grow shrimp, don’t under estimate the
support from mother nature/ environment
• Always produce shrimp within a positive carrying capacity.
