Advantages & Disadvantages of Biofloc Farming
Farmers involved in fish and shrimp production are inclining more towards biofloc farming technology so that production can be increased sustainably. But if not used properly researchers warn that the method could be unsuitable. The level of suspended solids in culture water needs to be maintained so that there is no danger of diseases for shrimp and fish. There is a knowledge gap in this technology which makes production management difficult. The idea to use this technology rightly is that fish production and microbial proliferation should occur in separate compartments. Advantages and disadvantages Pros The flocs are protein-rich and helps to provide fish and shrimp with the right amount of vitamins and phosphorous. Allowing the microbial flocs to reproduce can improve water quality and can actually immobilize toxic nitrogen. Farmers told that there is greater productivity using the system if they compare it to conventional aquaculture techniques. This pr...
