  Shrimp farming in India has recorded remarkable growth during the last three decades especially in coastal states. Optimum use of prospective areas and expanded farming practices has not only provided wonderful opportunity to farmers residing along coastal areas but also brought them prosperity. Most of the shrimp culture farmers were used chemicals for their culture. In the present study, an attempt has been made to culture Litopenaeus vannamei without any chemicals. The water was filled during high tide at least 2 hours every day based on seepage. This was continued until harvest. This activity actually brought minerals and fresh oxygen to the culture pond. The water quality variables were measured at regular intervals in organic shrimp pond during the production cycle (September 6th, 2022 and October 25th, 2022). Ninety eight percent survivals were not.. View more»
