What does SB-Goldex do?

Enhancing the quality of feed intake is crucial for promoting shrimp growth and boosting their immune system. By incorporating immunostimulants into the diet of shrimp, it's possible to significantly improve their overall health and growth rates. Immunostimulants, which include a variety of substances such as beta-glucans, peptides, and nucleotides, play a pivotal role in activating and enhancing the shrimp's immune response. This not only helps in faster growth by ensuring optimal nutrient absorption but also increases their resilience against diseases and infections. As a result, shrimp farmers can achieve better yields and healthier shrimp populations, contributing to the sustainability and profitability of aquaculture operations. Emphasizing the improvement of feed quality and the integration of immunostimulants into shrimp diets is thus a key strategy for advancing aquaculture practices.

The Challenge

In shrimp farming, one of the major challenges is ensuring optimal feed intake by shrimp. Improper feed formulation can lead to poor feed palatability, low nutrient absorption, and inefficient growth rates. Moreover, shrimp are susceptible to various pathogens, which can decimate populations and lead to significant economic losses. Traditional feeding strategies and health management practices often fail to address these issues effectively, leading to suboptimal growth performance and increased susceptibility to diseases.

The Solution

The integration of an improved feed formulation that enhances feed intake and incorporates immunostimulants presents a robust solution to these challenges. By optimizing the nutrient profile of shrimp feed, including the balance of proteins, fats, carbohydrates, vitamins, and minerals, shrimps are more likely to consume the feed efficiently. This results in better growth rates due to the enhanced availability of essential nutrients necessary for growth and development. Furthermore, incorporating immunostimulants such as beta-glucans, mannan oligosaccharides, and yeast extracts into the feed formulation strengthens the shrimp's immune system. These immunostimulants act by enhancing the innate immune response of shrimps, making them more resilient to pathogens and environmental stress. The combined effect of improved feed intake and the bolstered immune response not only accelerates growth but also improves overall health and survival rates, leading to increased productivity and sustainability in shrimp farming operations. This approach addresses the dual challenge of promoting growth and enhancing disease resistance, thereby supporting the aquaculture industry's goal of sustainable and profitable shrimp production.
