Pertumbuhan dan Kelangsungan Hidup
PL yang sudah dipindahkan ke kolam pembesaran kini disebut juvenile (udang muda). Pada tahap pembesaran, udang muda akan tumbuh, berganti kulit (molting), dan mulai membentuk organ reproduksi, meski belum matang secara seksual. Perilaku dan pola makannya sudah menyerupai udang dewasa. Tujuan utamanya adalah membesarkan udang muda hingga mencapai ukuran pasar yang diinginkan sambil menjaga angka kematian serendah mungkin. Fokus pada kualitas air yang optimal, pemberian pakan bernutrisi, dan pencegahan penyakit untuk memastikan pertumbuhan sehat dan tingkat kelangsungan hidup yang tinggi.

Does your management reflect your stocking densities?

Stocking density (# of shrimp/ m2) depends on the production system intensity (extensive to hyper intensive) and can range from <50 shrimp/m2, 50-100 shrimp/m2, 100-200 shrimp/m2 or >500 shrimp/m2. Investment and risk are higher with intensive and hyper-intensive production. Therefore, the higher the stocking density, the more intense and accurate farm management like feeding levels is required.

How to select the best grow-out feed?

Optimal feed gives the best returns on the investment. In general, higher protein and balanced nutrients will give the best performance. Plus, pellets must be sinking and water stable. Slight leaching is needed to ensure shrimp are attracted to the pellets and all feed gets consumed. The feeding program also depends on the production system, for example higher protein is recommended with super intensive models.

How to check shrimp feed consumption?

Shrimp should be fed to ad libitum as frequently as possible to ensure the fastest growth. However, avoid overfeeding. Check if the shrimp are still consuming the feed during feeding by lowering a fine sieve with feed into the pond, wait for 15 to 30 minutes and check if there is still feed on the sieve or not. In Intensive farming, autofeeders are recommended to control feed consumption.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Key questions in the grow-out stage

Shrimp are harvested based on market size demand or when pond carrying capacity is reached, prompting partial harvests to allow remaining shrimp to grow larger. This improves price and pond efficiency. Feed should match stocking density, shrimp age, and size. Using cost-effective feed is crucial for maintaining profitability, especially when market prices are low.

Water quality parameters should be managed to stay within the desired ranges for shrimp. It is important that the water is sufficiently aerated and that the faeces of the shrimp is filtered out of the water. Probiotics can be used to help with managing the TAN load in the water, as well as help with disease management. Please ensure use of probiotics as per guidelines of the product. Also adding probiotics into shrimp feed can help to improve digestibility and nutrient absorption.

In hyper-intensive shrimp farming, you’re not just feeding shrimp but also the biofloc—beneficial microbes that improve water quality and provide live feed. Properly supporting this system is essential for stability and shrimp health. Maintain a balanced environment with good aeration, controlled feeding, and carbon inputs to keep the biofloc active and effective. This ensures better growth, water quality, and overall farm efficiency.

Powering Progress
Optimisasi setiap fase hidup udang
Udang berkembang melalui beberapa tahap: telur menetas menjadi nauplii yang bergantung pada kuning telur sebagai sumber nutrisi. Mereka kemudian berkembang menjadi protozoea yang memakan plankton, lalu menjadi mysis yang mulai memiliki kaki renang. Pada tahap pascalarva (PL), udang menetap di dasar perairan dan mengonsumsi pakan mikro formulasi. Juvenil tumbuh melalui proses ganti kulit (molting) dan membutuhkan pakan akuakultur berprotein tinggi, sedangkan pada tahap dewasa mereka memakan pakan komersial seimbang untuk mendukung pertumbuhan dan reproduksi. Lama siklus ini bergantung pada jenis udang, target ukuran pasar, dan kondisi pertumbuhan.
