Shrimp are one of the most popular species in aquaculture due to their fast growth and high economic value. Admiral Farm, the agricultural division of Admiral Group SA, raises shrimp in a sustainable way to produce a healthy source of protein for human and animal consumption.
Our approach to sustainable shrimp farming involves using environmentally friendly practices to raise healthy and productive shrimp. We use integrated aquaculture systems that mimic natural ecosystems, such as aquaponics and pond culture. These systems help reduce water consumption and minimize waste, while providing a natural habitat for shrimp.
We feed our shrimp a balanced and nutritious diet, made up of plant proteins and natural nutrients, rather than using animal feed containing antibiotics and hormones. We also closely monitor the health of our shrimp to prevent disease and infection.
Our sustainable shrimp production also contributes to food security and job creation in local communities. We work closely with local communities to help them develop their own sustainable aquaculture projects and provide ongoing training and support.
In addition to producing a healthy source of protein for human and animal consumption, our sustainable shrimp production also helps to preserve natural ecosystems by reducing pressure on wild shrimp populations.
