Effect of biofloc technology on water quality and growth performance of Macrobrachium rosenbergii and assessment of the associated bacterial communities

Shrimp / By

Biofloc technology has become a popular technology in the farming of tilapia, Penaeus monodon, and Litopenaeus vannamei. It is an advanced technology identified for solving evolving viral problems and rising costs for energy. BFT has already been pilot tested in three farms in Luzon, two in Visayas, and two in Mindanao. Biofloc technology proved success …

Hatchery Development for four indigenous Macrobrachium freshwater prawn species in Marinduque

Shrimp / By

Among the recorded nine (9) naturally-occurring Macrobrachium species in Marinduque, there are 4 species with potentials for culture for their size, including M. australe, M. latimanus, M. lar, and M. latidactylus. These species are among the target species captured by local residents from the wild for domestic consumption and occasionally sold at the local market …

GeM-Phil: Genetic Characterization of Macrobrachium Populations in the Philippines for Broodstock Development and Seed Production

Shrimp / By

Due to various human interventions like overexploitation, environmental pollution and habitat loss, the natural population of Macrobrachium species is declining. There is also a great deal of confusion over the exact identity of both wild and hatchery-bred M. rosenbergii stocks in the Philippines. The use of mtDNA genes, microsatellite markers and EST/Next gen sequencing data …

Goat AI Delivery System: improving the stocks without a buck

Slaughter Goat / By

Enhancing goat farm production performance is critical for raisers in the countryside to increase their production volume and income. To promote the genetic improvement of stocks at the farm level even without maintaining a male breeder, the National Program on Slaughter Goat promoted the Artificial Insemination Delivery System (AI-DS). This protocol includes securing the source …
