Adding potassium diformate to solve the problem of slow shrimp eating and no meat growth during shrimp breeding

 In the process of farming Penaeus vannamei, many farmers will find that their prawns eat slowly and do not grow meat. What is the reason? The slow growth of prawns is due to shrimp seedlings, feed, and breeding management during the breeding process. Potassium diformate solves the phenomenon that prawns eat slowly and do not grow meat in the process of prawn breeding. It can raise more prawns and raise good prawns before they can be sold at a good price.

Some farmers reported that eating food was normal in the first month, but not eating much in the second month. This caused many farmers to think that it was a feed problem, suspecting that the feed quality was not good enough to cause the shrimp's appetite to decrease. Changing the type of feed, the result is that the slow eating situation has not been improved, but some ponds have become more serious.

Regarding this series of problems, the reasons for the slow eating of vannamei shrimp are summarized as the following points:

1. Reasons for shrimp larvae. Some shrimp larvae are of different sizes, and they will grow differently in the later stage of breeding. There are also shrimp larvae from incorrect sources, which tend to grow slowly or stop growing in the later stages.

2. Water quality reasons. Ammonia nitrogen, nitrite, and excessive pH in the water body will cause disease of the Penaeus vannamei, which will affect the diet of the shrimp.

3. There are many microorganisms in the pond, which can increase the rich feed organisms for the shrimp. At this time, the shrimp feeding platform will be slow.

4. Management factors. High stocking density, too shallow water level, insufficient water change, insufficient feeding amount (usually controlled at 6-8% of body weight), etc. will cause slow eating of shrimp.

In addition to the above factors, shrimps eat slowly, as well as bacterial and viral diseases. Sick shrimps must eat slowly. Needless to say. The effect of potassium diformate on the production performance of Penaeus vannamei. Adding 0.8% potassium diformate to the diet can increase the total weight of Penaeus vannamei by 20.6%, increase daily weight gain by 26%, and increase survival rate by 7.8%. Test results show that adding 0.8% potassium diformate to the feed of Penaeus vannamei can significantly improve the growth of shrimp and increase the survival rate of shrimp.

The main function of potassium diformate is to play a bacteriostatic and sterilizing effect, which can improve the disease resistance of the shrimp and enhance the physique of the shrimp. Because the main component of potassium diformate can adjust the structure of the intestinal flora to maintain the balance of the intestinal flora, which can improve the permeability of the shrimp intestine and increase the activity of protease. Increase the digestion and utilization of feed protein, reduce the feed ratio, improve the feed state of prawns, and promote the growth of prawns.
