APPLICATION OF TECHNOLOGY IN SHRIMP FARMING: MODERN SOLUTIONS FOR EMERGING CHALLENGES
Faced with the increasing challenges confronting the shrimp industry, farmers are gradually exploring and adopting technological solutions that support remote pond management, enabling them to monitor and respond to conditions at any time with greater ease.
In reality, the shrimp industry is encountering a multitude of risks - from environmental pollution triggering disease outbreaks to increasingly strict traceability requirements. These factors have underscored the practical importance and vital role of technology in assisting farmers in their pursuit of sustainability. Technological shrimp farming models are no longer unfamiliar to both domestic and international farmers, offering tangible benefits such as increased productivity, reduced labor and production costs, and improved control over water quality - all contributing to sustainable development.

To cope with today’s challenges, the shrimp industry has seen the emergence of comprehensive technological solutions - from water quality monitoring to enhanced health surveillance of shrimp. In this journey, Tomota has been continuously developing practical solutions aimed at building a modern and sustainable shrimp industry.
Tomota IoT – An Automated Shrimp Pond Management Solution
Born out of real-life experiences and common difficulties faced by shrimp farmers - such as the inability to promptly control farming equipment during sudden environmental or weather changes - the Tomota IoT system is designed to help farmers monitor and control devices like aerators, feeders, siphon systems, etc. This solution is particularly suitable for large-scale farms with multiple ponds.
The Tomota IoT smart control cabinet has become a trusted partner for shrimp farmers by acting as a central hub that connects and manages multiple devices within the pond. With just one touch, farmers can easily turn on or off any device connected to the Tomota IoT system, enabling quick responses to fluctuations and risks. Thanks to these advanced features, farmers can confidently manage operations, improve efficiency, and significantly reduce unnecessary costs.

Especially in times of increasing disease threats and environmental challenges, enhanced pond monitoring is more crucial than ever. Tomota IoT boosts safety and minimizes risk through its alarm system, which notifies users via the Tomota app when a device malfunctions or operates abnormally - allowing for immediate response. Additionally, the cabinet automatically switches to a backup device in case of failure, minimizing operational disruptions.
Flexible Control – Support Anytime, Anywhere
With a goal to accompany farmers through flexible and sustainable solutions, the Tomota IoT system is designed to accommodate a wide range of needs, offering three control modes: direct control at the cabinet, remote control via smartphone, and scheduled automation.
- Direct control allows users to manually operate buttons on the cabinet surface.
- Remote control via smartphone provides real-time monitoring and control through the Tomota mobile app, enabling farmers to manage pond conditions and operate equipment from anywhere with just one tap.
- Scheduled automation lets users preset operation times for pond devices, helping to optimize management time and reduce manual workload.
More than just a simple equipment controller, the Tomota IoT control cabinet is a smart transformation solution that turns traditional electrical devices into an integrated management system. Rooted in practical technological applications, Tomota’s solutions aim to support farmers to the fullest on their journey toward sustainable shrimp farming.
Conclusion
In light of the rising concerns surrounding the shrimp industry - from unpredictable weather patterns to heightened demands for traceability - Tomota deeply understands the difficulties that farmers are facing. That’s why, after years of relentless effort in searching for answers to the question: “How can shrimp be farmed sustainably?”, the Tomota IoT system and other tech solutions were developed based on real user feedback and hands-on experience.
Tomota hopes that these solutions will continue to accompany shrimp farmers, using technology as a bridge to bring the industry closer to the goal of true sustainability.
