Euroshrimp in Bremen

FishInternational 2018 program and summary presentations

On request of the coordinators from the Fish International fair in Bremen, we decided to support them with their Aquaculture Workshop. The one-day conference consisted of four lecture series held in different event rooms: Recirculating Systems, Salmonids, Shrimps and Animal Health. The Shrimp session, accompanied and moderated by EuroShrimp, dealt with a variety of interesting and diverse topics.

The team of Fish International had organized an interesting and diversified day. In the afternoon, we all came together and reported on the most important results of the respective lecture series. You can have a closer look at the individual presentations of the shrimp session on our Website or look at the presentations of the other lecture series by following the Link to the Website of the Fish International.

Hatchery: Post-Larvae made in Europe?

Gerrit Quantz General Manager Futurefish GmbH, Germany

Several shrimp farming projects have been initiated in Europe during the last years. Almost all of these projects are importing Post Larvae (PL) from hatcheries in the United States. This very limited option in the seed supply is the consequence of the very strict import regulations for live shrimp by the EU authorities and a bottleneck for the emerging industry.

Within the past decade the level of interest in indoor shrimp farming has noticeably grown, thanks to the known high quality of the fresh product, still the implementation of projects is scarce. Realization mostly is hampered by improper financing and also by insecure, highly heterogeneous regulatory framework.
