perhaps SIAF can learn from what High Country Shrimp is doing with the Alkame water treatment expertize? “With the Alkame technology implemented into the water treatment process of our facility, we hope to reduce the time that shrimp are in grow tanks from the traditional 90-120 days with 20% mortality down to approximately 60-90 days with a 10%-15% mortality rate, all while increasing the quality and overall health of the shrimp,” Hays said.
