Penaeus vannamei is a very popular seafood with 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.

There are large aquaculture ponds in Dongying area, with a large area of about 3000 mu. Compared with other cities, the rent is much cheaper, the shrimp culture technology is becoming more and more mature, the survival rate of shrimp seedlings is also improving, and the income can be basically guaranteed.

A few years ago, Dongying vigorously developed the sea cucumber industry. Due to the influence of high temperature, the sea cucumber culture pond has become a Penaeus vannamei culture pond. The single pond area of this kind of aquaculture pond is about 60- 100 mu, all of which are protected by concrete slope protection and have a high degree of standardization. This meticulous management of aquaculture ponds has achieved 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 often faces the embarrassment that the sales price of aquatic products fluctuates greatly, sometimes even falls instead of rising, but the input cost increases year by year. In recent years, the cost of pond rent, labor, seedlings and feed has been rising, thus reducing profits.

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