6 Tips for Aquaculture Success
Whether you're just starting or already have knowledge in aquaculture, these tips will guide beginners and enhance the expertise of experienced farmers. Let’s explore these 6 aquaculture tips with Aqua Mina.
1. Select the Right Species
Decide where you want to establish your farm, and then evaluate if the terrain and climate are suitable for the species you plan to raise. It's crucial to understand the habits of each species—be it fish, shrimp, or eels.
2. Choose an Appropriate Farming Model
Select a location with clean water, free from industrial waste or pollution, and where water flow is favorable for farming. Minimize the risk of annual flooding and avoid locations that may disrupt the surrounding community.
3. Farm Design
Consider the local weather when designing your farm to ensure safety. Incorporate modern setups like tarpaulin-lined ponds or shaded nurseries. It's also beneficial to have protective structures to moderate environmental changes.
4. Manage Feed Efficiently
Feed can account for 50-62% of farming costs. Proper feed management is key to controlling expenses and maintaining water quality, as excess feed can lead to pollution and disease outbreaks.
5. Minimize Chemical Use
In the past, chemical treatments were commonly used to combat disease, but these can harm both consumers and the farmed species. Instead, use natural solutions like EM probiotics to maintain a healthy and chemical-free environment.
6. Create a Protective Buffer
Plant trees around your farm to purify the air, provide shade, and shelter from strong winds. This can also contribute to a balanced environment, improving overall farm sustainability.
