2. introduction
Shrimp farming was synonymous with the monoculture of tiger shrimp, penaeus monodon.
About 1,90,000 ha brackish water area have been developed for shrimp culture in the country.
Since 1995 culture of P.monodon is affected by White Spot Syndrome virus (WSSV) and
the development of shrimp farming has been stagnant.
Most of the South East Asian countries like Thailand, Vietnam, Indonesia were also culture
P.monodon & since 2001-2002 onward most of them have shifted to culture of exotic whiteleg
shrimp, Litopenous vannamei because of availability of SPF & SPR brood stock in India.
In India, pilot scale production of L.vannamei was initiated in 2003.
3. Global view of shrimp culture
Expected to reach 4.5 – 4.75MMT IN 2018-2019
4. GLOBAL SHRIMP PRODUCTION TREDS
Vannamei accounts for over 75% of Global shrimp production & about 70% of
Asian shrimp production.
Expected to reach 4.5MMT in 2018-2019 from the current level of about
3.75MMT.
Growth areas:-
Americas – Lead by Ecuador
Asia – Lead by India – China production is flat

MARKETS
THE FUTURE OUTLOOK
WAY FORWARD
Shrimp Hatcheries – overview
Installed capacity – >100 billion PL
Broodstock source – Imported SPF
Aquatic Quarantine Facility (AQF) – All imports through AQF operated by Government
of India
Broodstock Multiplication Centre (BMC) operated by Govt. of India in technical
collaboration with Oceanic Institute, USA
16. Challenges in seed production:
• Zoea to Mysis to PL conversion problems – causes not fully understood – bacterial loads
suspected as culprit
• Live feeds in maturation causing infections (EHP) – Have to find alternates
• Adequate supply of quality brood-stock
Regulatory mechanisms:
• Mandatory registration with Government Authority(CAA)
• Mandatory routine inspections on protocols by authorities(MPEDA)
• Routine random sample testing conducted by regulatory authorities (EIA)
17. Newtrends in hatcheries
Quick nauplii stocking of the entire hatchery to avoid conversion problems.
Complete shut down and THROUGH disinfection of the entire hatchery
operations after every cycle IS GIVING GOOD RESULTS.
Pasteurized live feeds for maturation working very well BUT NOT ALL.
Formulated feeds for maturation being tried.
18. Shrimp production in india
India’s cultured shrimp production in FY 2014-15 (April-March) was about 426,500 MT, up 30
percent from the previous year (Figure 1). From FY 2004-05 to FY 2014-15, shrimp production
has grown at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 13 percent.
The introduction of white leg shrimp (Litopenaeus Vannamei, or Vannamei) in 2009 spurred
growth in shrimp production during the last few years and displaced sales of the other major
shrimp species, tiger shrimp (Penaeus Monodon). Farming of tiger shrimp declined once it was
found to be susceptible to disease. In FY 2014-15, the production of white leg shrimp
(Vannamei) rose to around 353,000 MT, which was 81% of the total shrimp production in
India.
The Vannamei species is preferred due to its superior traits such as fast growth rate, disease
resistance, lower feed requirements, and higher survival rate. In FY 2014-15, the area under
shrimp production in brackish water aquaculture was 121,600 hectares, which was up from
102,500 hectares in 2009-10.
19. Con.......
Industry sources indicate that shrimp production accounts for 25% of the brackish water
aquaculture. Similarly, the wild production of Penaeid and Non-Penaeid prawns was
around 450,000 MT in FY 2014-15 according to industry sources.
The major marine wild species of prawns and shrimp are White Prawn (Penaeus Indicus),
Tiger Prawn (Penaeus Mondon), Pink Shrimp (Metapenaeus Dobsoni), King Prawn
(Metapenaeus Affinis), and Marine Shrimp (Paraenaeopsis Stylifera). Cultured shrimp has
generally been favored for growth over wild shrimp.
Indian Shrimp Farming – Overview
153,000 HA under scientific shrimp farming.
40-50,000 HA under traditional shrimp farming.
Potential area 11,90,000 HA.
> 95% Vannamei.
24. Farm Production andProductivity
Average Stocking densities – 30 per sq mt.
Average harvest sizes – 18 grams
Average final Survivals – 55%
Average production cost – US$ 4.42 / kg (HO55-60c )
Production growing because of expanding farming areas but productivity
reducing.
Overall average farm production efficiency or success rate – 60%
Rising production cost serious concern.
Farming profitable only because of current high prices but prices are dropping
causing concern.
25. Disease Status
WSSV major problem.
EHP spreading rampantly and causing slow growth.
White Faces syndrome quite wide spread causing slow growth and loose shells.
Running mortality during peak summer times.
EMS
No other serious pathogens reported.
26. New Trends in farming
Increased Biosecurity measures.
Nurseries :
to produce juveniles.
to strengthen the animal health at the early stage.
to better tackle diseases, improve survivals.
to reduce cost of production.
to maximise utilisation of good climatic conditions.
MEASURES to overcome EHP and whitefaces Syndrome – pond bottom liming, seed
quality checks, rigorous disinfection of source waters.
27. Feed Production-status and challenges
Installed capacity – over 2 Million tons.
Production crossed 1 million tons in 2017.
Every year 1 or 2 new major feed mills being set up.
Increasing input cost serious concern.
Farmers facing increased FCR’s and overall increased feed cost despite much
competition among feed millers.
28. Processing Factories – details
Approval type
• Units eligible to export to European Union
• Units eligible to export to countries other than European Union.
MARKETS : Frozen Shrimp exports from India
32. Quality Control measures for exports
National Residue Control Plan (NRCP) – a statutory requirement for exporting to
EU countries.
Pre-harvest testing.
Health certificate by EIA.
Industry has adopted modern methods of handling, processing besides adequate
quality control measures to improve the quality of sea food.
Mandatory HACCP compliance for all processing plants.
Export rejection percentage is very low despite exports at all time high.
33. Issues in Exports
Food safety issues, although detected in only 0.22% of exported shrimps, is a
serious concern for exporters as they face the brunt of the rejections.
More stringent inspections by importers particularly EU – 50% testing.
Declining demand for large sizes is unfortunate, particularly for small and
marginal farmers who mostly prefer to produce big size animals.
34. Future outlook
Indian Shrimp aquaculture poised like a cat on the wall.
India can sustain its record breaking run if it manages to improve productivity,
overcome threats form existing and emerging pathogens and also take proactive
measures to ensure 100% food safety compliance.
35. NewRecords in 2018
India Poised to touch the 700,000 tons production mark
Indian Production catching up with China and expected to surpass China’s
production
India will become the largest producer and continue to be the largest exporter of
Vannamei
Production in Andhra Pradesh State alone to cross 400,000 tons
Seed production to hit all time high of 70 billion
36. Needof the Hour
Focus on improving productivity to ensure profitability and sustainability
mostly disease control to improve survivals and growth.
Established Facilities to test pathogens and residues in all inputs for all
stakeholders.
Certified inputs for all stake holders in the sector.
Sustained supply of quality brood-stock – BMC, AQF, NBC
Solutions to overcome EHP and whitefaces disease.
Disease resistant seeds, particularly for small and marginal farmers doing
traditional farming.
Focus on domestic market.
Focus on selective breeding programs for Native species.
37. Strategies for increasing production
Species diversification.
Development of captive broodstock and domestication of identified
species.
Ensuring adoption of appropriate biosecurity measures by the hatcheries
for supply of pathogen free seed.
Development of environmental friendly and cost effective culture
technologies for both shrimp and finfish focusing on small scale farmers.
Comprehensive health management approach in shrimp hatcheries and
farms.
Promotion of institutional mechanism.
