Water quality, chemical fluxes and production in semi-intensive Pacific white shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei) culture ponds utilizing two different feeding strategies

Fluxes and concentrations of suspended solids (organic and total particulate matter, chlorophyll a) and nutrients (phosphate, nitrate, nitrite and ammonia) were evaluated in commercial semi-intensive Pacific white shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei) ponds for two feeding strategies using feeding trays (FT...

Description
Summary:Fluxes and concentrations of suspended solids (organic and total particulate matter, chlorophyll a) and nutrients (phosphate, nitrate, nitrite and ammonia) were evaluated in commercial semi-intensive Pacific white shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei) ponds for two feeding strategies using feeding trays (FT) and a mechanical feed dispersal device (FD). During the 203 days of trial, the ponds where feed was provided by feed trays generated significantly (p
