PRECISION FARMING
SEATRU™ is a new aquaculture alliance set to use precision monitoring and treatment to keep shrimp ponds healthy.
THE CHALLENGE
Shrimp farmers are hampered by a lack of reliable data on water quality and animal health, resulting in frequent unpredictable disease outbreaks.
Disease can wipe out a pond in five days and there are currently no effective methods to prevent disease in shrimp.
30% average mortality rate and a $6 billion global average annual loss due to disease.
THE SEATRU™ VISION
SEATRU™ aims to shift the focus of the world’s shrimp farmers from fighting and treating diseases to using precision monitoring and treatment to keep shrimp ponds healthy.
PREDICT AND PREVENT OUTBREAKS
1. CREATE A STABLE ENVIRONMENT
resulting in higher rates of success, growth and survival
2. PRECISE DOSING
only use the right treatment at the right quantity at the right time, tailored to each pond
3. PRESCRIPTIVE SOLUTIONS
advice on products to correct the microbial imbalance of the pond
CONTROL pond conditions with eco-friendly water conditioning products and no antibiotics
MAINTAIN STABLE CONDITIONS using probiotics and other products specifically customized for each pond
RESULTS SO FAR*
+15% Increase in survival rate
+15% Increase in harvest yield
+8% Increase in shrimp weight
-17% Decrease in FCR
*Figures are based on preliminary field testing which forms the basis for our ongoing research project to optimize the methodology and results
