NATURALSHRIMP BEGINS TRANSFER FROM NURSERY TO GROW-OUT

NATURALSHRIMP BEGINS TRANSFER FROM NURSERY (2)

NaturalShrimp begins transfer from nursery to grow-out. NaturalShrimp, Inc., the aquaculture company that has developed and patented the first commercially-operational RAS (Recirculating Aquaculture System) has begun transferring shrimp from nursery to grow-out tanks in the La Coste, Texas production facility.

The production facility contains twenty 2,000-gallon nursery tanks and forty 20,000-gallon tanks. This combination minimises the amount of square footage required for production. In addition, the smaller nursery tanks provide a more controlled environment for acclimating the initial post larvae (PL) shrimp to the facility’s water temperature and salinity while still providing enough volume for the smaller shrimp to grow. The Company has successfully begun gravity flowing shrimp who have reached their transfer size from nursery tanks where they were previously stocked into the larger grow-out tanks where they will remain until they reach harvest size.

NaturalShrimp, Inc. is a publicly traded aquaculture Company, headquartered in Dallas, with production facilities located near San Antonio, Texas and Webster City, Iowa. The Company has developed the first commercially viable system for growing shrimp in enclosed, salt-water systems, using patented technology to produce fresh, never frozen, naturally grown shrimp, without the use of antibiotics or toxic chemicals. NaturalShrimp systems can be located anywhere in the world to produce gourmet-grade Pacific white shrimp.
