“…Mean survival rate of red claw in the present study (64%) is similar to other reports: 36% (Brummet and Alon 1994); 50% (Salame and Rouse 2000). Total yield of red claw in the present study (903 kg/ha) was similar to values reported for freshwater prawn, Macrobrachium rosenbergii (Tidwell et al 1993) and red claw (Salame and Rouse 2000).…”

Small (0.7 g) juvenile red claw, Cherax quadricarinatus, were stocked in earthen ponds (0.04 ha) in Kentucky and grown for 86 days so that measures of growth, survival, processing characteristics, and proximate composition of tail muscle in male and female Australian red claw crayfish could be obtained. A commercial marine shrimp was fed to all red in two separate feedings, each consisting of one-half of the total daily ration between 0800-0830 and between 1530-1600 hours for the duration of the culture period. Total weight and number of red claw from each pond were recorded at the harvest.

“…Selected plant proteins, typically soybean products, have received much attention due to their relatively low cost, good nutrient profile, and ready availability. Numerous studies have focused, with some success, on the use of cheap, sometimes novel, animal products (Balazs and Ross, 1976;Tinsley et al, 1984;Tacon and Jackson, 1985;Dominy and Ako, 1988;All, 1992;Hasan and Das, 1993;Hossain et al, 1993;Tidwell et al, 1993). Few attempts have been made to identify useful protein supplements for incorporation into artificial diets for the yabby.…”

The effect of dietary protein source on growth and carcass composition in juvenile Australian freshwater crayfish

1996

A feed trial was conducted for 12 weeks on juvenile Australian freshwater crayfish (Cherax destructor) (mean weight (SE) 0.82 (0.02)g) maintained on five isoenergetic diets with a protein content of 30%. Diets differed in the primary source of protein used, with meat, snail, soybean, yabby, and zooplankton meals comprising the major protein ingredient, varying from 56-60% of total protein. Mean percentage weight gain per day ranged from 7.57% (yabby meal diet), to 9.42% (snail meal diet). No significant difference occurred in mean weight, percentage weight gain, specific growth rate (%), or survival among diets. A maximum size of 16.44g was attained on the yabby meal diet. Largest mean weight was 8.27g on the snail-based diet. Food conversion ratios were all good, with a minimum value of 0.95 recorded for the snail-based diet. Initial food consumption per day was approximately 5% of mean animal weight, decreasing to around 2.4960, and is collectively described by a power curve. Protein retention ranged from 29.57% in the zooplankton meal diet to 41.15% in the snail-based diet. Carcass composition was influenced by feed type, with the most marked difference occurring in carapace colour. Animals fed the zooplankton-based pellets developed the strongest pigmentation. Recommendations are made for including certain protein-based ingredients in manufactured yabby diets.

“…McGinty and Alston (1993) recommended 25 thousand/ha stocking density for shrimp farming. Whereas Tidwell et al (1992) indicated a good production with the stocking density of 19.66 thousand/ha. However, white fishes were stocked at 0.44 thousand/ha in shrimp farms in Bagerhat district.…”

A study was conducted on culture practices of shrimp at farmers' level in Bagerhat District. Investigation was based on a sample of 123 shrimp farmers from the seven Thanas (Fakirhat, Mollahat, Sadar, Rampal, Mongla, Chitalmari and Kachua) of the District, 73.17% farmers produced shrimp with white fishes. Farmers (54.47%) started to culture during 2000-2004 in this area. The culture period was typically four months for bagda and six to seven months for golda. Hatchery PL are stocked mainly in May to June for prawn and from late March for bagda. The average stocking density of shrimp PL golda and bagda was 24.16 and 12.16 thousand/ha in the farms. Varieties of feeds such as cooked rice, fishmeal, oilcake and snail muscle were used for shrimp culture. Mainly virus disease was responsible for the great loss of shrimp in this area. About 46.34% of the surveyed farms faced a huge damage due to WSBV. The average bagda and golda production was 350.37 kg and 428.08 kg/ha/year. Long term sustainability of shrimp farming facing problems due to lack of money, poor supply of good quality PL, lack of technical knowledge, higher production costs and poor institutional support. It might be however, necessary to establish shrimp hatcheries and provide training facilities, extension service, institutional and policy support to the farmers with the help of DoF and NGOs.
