Penaeus vannamei is a very popular seafood in the market because of its thin shell and fat body, delicious meat and rich nutrition. Internationally, China's shrimp export has also formed a scale advantage. With the improvement of people's living standards and the further development of logistics, the market area of Penaeus vannamei will continue to expand and its potential will be further stimulated.

In Dongying area, there are large aquaculture ponds with a relatively large area of about 3,000 mu. Compared with other cities, the rent is much cheaper, shrimp culture technology is becoming more and more mature, and the survival rate of shrimp seedlings is improving, so the income can basically be guaranteed.

A few years ago, Dongying area vigorously developed the sea cucumber industry. Due to the influence of high temperature, the sea cucumber culture pond became a Penaeus vannamei culture pond. The single pond area of this kind of culture pond is about 60- 100 mu, and all the concrete slopes are protected, with a high degree of standardization. This kind of refined management of aquaculture ponds achieves high output.

Breeding risk of Penaeus vannamei

Penaeus vannamei culture, like other aquaculture, also faces three major risks. The first is market risk. At present, the aquatic product market is often faced with the embarrassment that the sales price of aquatic products fluctuates greatly, sometimes even falling instead of rising, but the input cost is increasing year by year. In recent years, the cost of pond rent, labor, seedlings and feed has been rising continuously, thus reducing profits.

Followed by the risk of disease. In recent years, there are many diseases of Penaeus vannamei, such as stealing death and white spot syndrome, which not only affect the harvest. On the whole, due to many diseases, some farmers may take risks and illegally use illegal fish drugs. Once the incident happens, consumers will resist, causing an overall crisis in the industry. Thirdly, the risk of natural disasters, such as floods, will pose potential risks to aquaculture.
