Counting shrimp manually, especially seed shrimp, consumes a lot of time and effort with varying effectiveness. This article by Tomota provides you with detailed information about the Tomota S3 shrimp post larvae counting solution - commercial shrimp measuring, supporting shrimp farmers to quickly and conveniently monitor and manage shrimp growth rate and health.

Challenges of managing shrimp growth using traditional methods

Measuring shrimp by traditional hand-counting methods presents several challenges, as follows:

• Determining the size and quantity of shrimp using traditional methods often lacks accuracy, which affects the estimation of stocking density and leads to errors in calculating feed amounts.
• Storing data on the growth rate and health of shrimp herds in books is easy to lose, difficult to retrieve data and not very effective.
• Using nets to manually scoop and count shrimp causes injury and stress to the shrimp, resulting in higher mortality rates compared to using modern counting methods.
