ODRAS developments at the Mega Farm.
This is from Sentinel-2 on July 14.

To further improve the design of the ODRAS, the growout ponds went through another generational development, improved with black plastic linings, or more correctly, High-Density-Polyethylene (HDPE), on pond bottoms. HDPE liners are smoother than concrete, easier to clean, and are easier on the bodies of shrimp. They are more economical to use on a larger scale than concrete. The ponds have concrete only on the banks of this design to ensure a stable surface for attachment of the liners and for integrity of the pond shape. Proper placement of aerators promotes circular movement of water to ensure optimum self-cleaning.

These HDPE lined ponds are currently being used to raise Pacific White shrimp which are amenable to such a design and can be raised at very high densities in this system.

This is a very cheap solution to generate some cash flow. 15 interconnected RAS ponds with plastic coverings. It seems that the ponds are not filled with water yet.
