Budidaya Udang Vaname (Litopenaeus vannamei) di Keramba Jaring Apung Laut

Pacific white shrimp is a brackish water commodity that is the mainstay of the country's foreign exchange. The number of times faced in aquaculture activities in ponds makes alternative cultivation activities that need to be done. The use of the potential of sea waters can be a medium in vaname shrimp cultivation. The use of floating net cages is one of the alternative cultivation media used. This study aims to determine the performance of vaname shrimp production which is cultivated in the floating net cage. This study was carried out by using the research method with the number of cage plots used as many as 6 pieces with a total stock of 2000 juvenile per plot for 90 days. Production performance criteria observed include growth, Survival Rate (SR), Average Daily Gain (ADG), Food Conversion Ratio (FCR) and total biomass. The results showed that the growth of weight 19,3 grams, growth in length 12,3 cm, Survival Rate (SR) 33%, Average Daily Gain (ADG) 0.21 grams/day, Food Conversion Ratio (FCR) 1,9 and total biomass of 76,32 kg.
