Uso eficiente de los alimentadores automáticos en el ciclo de cultivo del camarón blanco (litopenaeus vannamei).

Abstract

The present research is based on the good management of automatic feeders in the cultivation of white shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei), focusing on better use of balanced feed, which is one of the factors that generate the most expenses in shrimp companies in the country. Given that the shrimp sector faces various problems which sometimes affect the company economically, such as reduced prices, pests, good genetic pathways and increased production costs, the problems will be generated by the environmental impact of the farms caused by their poor management. Likewise, advantages and disadvantages of the various feeding methods in the sector are identified, evidencing the favorable results generated by the use of automatic feeders, likewise, taking into account the considerations that must be followed in each cultivated pond. This way you can achieve the expected results when using said equipment. These devices can obtain positive results in the shortest possible time, as long as they are handled properly and appropriate monitoring is carried out in the field. In the same way, good aeration must be had to achieve optimal levels of dissolved oxygen, since that by combining these two factors the results expected by the producer are obtained.
