Indonesia is one of the largest fish and shrimp exporters in the world and continues to expand its aquaculture sector.
JAPFA is one of the leading suppliers of local aquaculture products in the country and also one of the leading suppliers of high quality post-larva to Indonesian farmers.
Neovia is one of the top 3 international providers of aquaculture solutions and specialties in the world.
Together with our other brands Bernaqua, Epicore and Acui-T, we help with these aquaculture solutions.
The shrimp farming sector continues to invest in technology to continue to evolve the activities for the shrimp growers. This is necessary for farmers to adjust and improve the production process more efficiently. For example, farmers reduce their production costs through the use of new technologies. Thanks to this efficient approach, they also continue to compete in the current market and shrimp prices.
The Young Farmers Indonesia (Petambak Muda Indonesia) is an energetic new association of shrimp farmers. Who venture into shrimp farms that are open to new technology. PMI also learn to improve their activities.
On a joint effort JAPFA/NEOVIA organize a day of seminars for the association where the following topics were presented and discussed:
First an overview of world production and market prices.
Then improve the production process with new technologies. New pre-starter food quality feeds essential for these systems and management.
We end with on the development of the shrimp production process. As well as challenges at all levels; new diseases, newest changes and technologies for the industry.
The purpose of this mission is to help as many farmers as possible to improve their production process, this without increasing the risks to the environment and reducing the sustainability of the product. JAPFA and Neovia want to help to develop all necessary solutions and to make them available to farmers to maintain the reliability of the shrimp industry.
The Seminar was well received by a group of more than 30 young farmers. They actively participated. By exchanging ideas and making inquiries about this new technology that aquaculture has to offer.
