Selection of marine shrimp for culture
Share
Abstract
Criteria for selection of the culture species should include high economic value and high market demand, easy culture, and fast growth. The purpose of this paper is to compare the general characteristics, as well as growth and spawning, of different species of marine shrimp. The advantages and disadvantages of each species are also discussed in order to serve as a basic guideline for shrimp farmers in selecting species for culture.
