Risk Management for Shrimp Farmers
Animal welfare at the 2023 Global Shrimp Forum in Utrecht
We monitor and analyse neighbouring farm sites to reduce risk and costs and improve production.
How it works? You submit your disease, production and harvest status confidential and receive updated regional information back.
Start immediately receiving disease forecasts, production and harvest information. Get alerts on three key diseases: EHP, AHPND (EMS), White spot disease
It aims to…
Increase shrimp farm productivity
Improve health management practices at farm and zone level
Protects investment and demonstrates professionalism
Joins-up solutions to solve a common issue
Key approaches:
Diagnostic services support enabling farmers to detect disease before symptoms appear
Epidemiological data assessment
SHRImp Project Goals
“'The project gave us powerful tools. It makes me feel safer to monitor the health of my shrimp. If I know they have White Spot disease, I will harvest, and if it's another disease that I can manage, I will keep the crop and take extra care of the shrimp”

Collaboration
Data sharing for health management issues is a sustainable practice, increases productivity, protects investment and demonstrates transparency.
This health management in livestock via data sharing has been ongoing in different countries, such as in Norway and Chile with salmon, to fight against sea lice and ISAV. The Covid 19 outbreak is another example on how important it is to share data in order to fight a disease.
Myshrimp.farm relies on support from our stakeholders.
It all begins with an idea.
