Culture of marine shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei) in biofloc technology system using artificially salinized freshwater: Zootechnical performance, economics and nutritional quality

Marine shrimp farming traditionally occurs in coastal areas. Although inland farming represents only a small fraction of total Brazilian marine shrimp production, the culture in inland areas has some advantages which may contribute with economic, social and even environmental benefits. Combining zero water exchange technologies and ionic adequacy (or salinization) of freshwater, this study proposes a marine shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei) culture...
