That is some amazing broodstock they are getting from CP Foods.

This is what I was looking for. It shows that the growth rate (for Mexican White) is linear. IOW, they don't grow faster as they become bigger. Which makes sense of course, otherwise everyone would be growing big shrimp (they fetch a much higher price per kg).



I don't think they can grow them from 20 grams to 50 grams in just 4 weeks. Or can they? There is something else going on, with partial harvesting IMO. (?)

Experimental Farm (10-K)

Our teams (including some newly recruited technicians and experts) are working diligently on the project having already overcome various problems in construction and associated preparation work on growing MWP, expecting to stock prawn fingerling (PL7days) within the 1st week in April 2018 and if all goes according to plan, are anticipating harvests to begin taking place 7 weeks later (beginning of June 2018) for the smaller sized prawns (i.e. 50/60 pieces / Kg) and final harvest on or before end of June for the larger sized prawns (i.e. 20 / 25 pieces / Kg). This MWEF is being constructed on a 1000 m2 surface area that has 4 grow-out tanks (to contain 480 m3 of water, collectively) with each tank to have 120m3 of water that is being recycled and serviced by 2 tanks (each of 25m3) that have inbuilt filtration and water treatment systems aiming to produce 3Kg of small sized prawns / m3 of water within 7 weeks and 6Kg / m3 of larger sized prawns within 10 weeks. This production aims to enhance harvests by approximately 3,000 Kg (or 3 MT) per harvest (15 MT / year) of larger sized prawns based on 5 harvests per year. In 2017, the average of wholesale prices of (MWP) prawns is RMB50 / kg for small sized prawn and RMB150 / Kg for larger sizes. This will mean that there will be RMB2.25 million sales revenues generated per year per 1,000 m2 of developed floor area. We are optimistic to achieve this milestone of securing sound fundamentals for the growing MWP in China.
