Shrimp
Broodstock
The first step of shrimp production is obtaining high quality shrimp
eggs. Production of these eggs will be carried out by adult shrimp
(broodstock) that will either be collected from the wild or will be grown from
past shrimp batches. Males used in spawning efforts will weight
approximately 0.88-1.06 ounces (25-30 grams) each and females approximately
1.06-1.41 ounces (30-40 grams) each. Each female that participate in
spawning activities can potentially produce 150,000 eggs per maturation
cycle.
