Abstract

Most of the efforts in research is to understand the nature and the truth. Even in the field of aquaculture many such efforts led to blue revolution in the world. The global fish production is 158 million tonnes (mt) of which 66 mt come from freshwater. India is producing 10.07 mt of fish and 6.0 mt is contributed from freshwater aquaculture. India is earning 38000 crores by exporting 10.5 lakh tons of fish and fishery products. Of which 20,000 crores contributed by export of Litopenaeus Vannamei -the white shrimp. After a major disease outbreak in tiger shrimp farming, many farmers started culturing the white shrimp which is native to Latin America.
