The Agricultural Promotion Center (Department of Agriculture and Rural Development) of Bình Định province recently collaborated with the Agricultural Service Center of Phù Cát district to organize a training program for the transfer of commercial whiteleg shrimp farming techniques using Semi-Biofloc technology for 20 shrimp farming households in Cát Minh commune.
Those households were instructed on constructing farming facilities (including water storage ponds, settling ponds, effluent ponds, nursery ponds, grow-out ponds, and other supporting structures), shrimp nursery and commercial farming techniques using Semi-Biofloc technology, feed management, environmental management, as well as prevention and treatment of common diseases in whiteleg shrimp.
With Semi-Biofloc technology, farmers can mitigate disease-causing factors, reduce or eliminate the use of antibiotics in shrimp farming.
As a result, production costs are reduced, antibiotic residues in commercial shrimp are well-controlled, enhancing the value of the products and economic efficiency, leading to a significant increase in income compared to other practices.
