Hatchery benefits

Shrimp hatcheries using the XpertSea solution can rapidly optimise the accuracy of their post-larvae production while gaining new insights that lead to better business decisions. Shrimp hatchery managers save time and money by eliminating time-consuming hand counting and hand sizing. Production managers maximise post-larvae survival by packing the right amount and improve their relationships with buyers by providing independent proof of the total shipment quantity. They also reduce production costs and avoid wasting feed by knowing the exact number of their organisms. Quality control managers improve live feed culture management by tracking microalgae cell density and artemia hatching rates to optimise their harvest and product quality. The XperCount also allows them to limit the impact of disease by keeping their organisms healthy with optimised stocking densities and feeding. And with the online portal, decision makers can track growth and quality with informative and easy to understand reporting from anywhere and at any time.

Farm benefits

The benefits of this technological approach are many. Shrimp farmers can keep their animals healthy and optimally fed by precisely stocking the perfect amount. They can quickly and accurately evaluate each shipment they receive and monitor their animals during grow-out.
