Why choose our shrimp solutions?
We deal with all areas of early-stage shrimp production, from broodstock to hatchery, nursery and grow-out, all whilst focusing on nutrition, health and the environment. Solutions are deployed at specific stages of the aquaculture lifecycle to maximise yield and add value.
Using a combination of the most advanced genomic methods and conventional genetics, our program aims to identify the individuals that are genetically faster growing and more resistant to disease.
These individuals are used as parents in each new generation to improve the nucleus population and produce broodstock which better meets the needs and expectations of our customers.
We conduct continuous collaborative work with our partners and clients to develop and deliver solutions with the best adaptability to their environmental conditions.
Our services allow for shrimp which are specially adapted to thrive in specific environments, and produce balanced lines which combine the best of improved growth with robustness and disease resistance.
All of our products and solutions come with expert advice to ensure the correct application for an optimal result. We have an extensive international team of experts ready to advise and guide you through our innovative offerings.
Nutrition
It’s an undisputed fact in aquaculture that production is largely determined by the quality of the first life stages. With balanced larval feed formulations and protocols, we help to prepare larvae and post-larvae for efficient growth. Our know-how optimizes their strength, resulting in proficient growth performance and robustness.
Artemia
To enable our industry’s growth, innovative solutions that will improve Artemia production are needed, always complying with biosecurity standards in order to reach the highest productivity. We have secure access to this high-quality live feed which, enhanced by our technology, improves nutrition and resilience.
Genetics
Benchmark Genetics Shrimp operates its world-leading breeding program for Peneaeus vannamei. With its breeding nucleus in Colombia, and from its modern and biosecure Elite Multiplication Centre in Fellsmere, FL, USA, Benchmark Genetics Shrimp develops, produces and globally distributes genetically improved, high performing SPR/SPF Shrimp strains with improved health and efficiency adapted to modern farming conditions.
