Abstract

Due to the increasing global demand for shrimp and the development of its cultivation in the country,for increase production per hectare and survival rate, increase the storage weight of post-larvae and reduce the length of the breeding period is recommended. In this study, a number of post-larvae prepared from a breeding center; Stored in a greenhouse and a group weighing 0.7 g and a group weighing 2 g were stored in pond. Growth and survival indices were compared with controls that were stored directly at the same stocking density. Ponds were stored at the same density of 14 pieces per square meter. The size of the pound was all equal and was 7000 square meters. Each treatment had 3 replications. The breeding period was 56 days. A biometry was performed every 15 days. The results showed that the control treatment with a final weight of 8 g was harvested with 84% survival. Treatment 2 weighing 15 g with 87% survival and Treatment 3 weighing 21 g with 87% survival It can be concluded that by increasing the storage weight of stored larvae, the final weight and production per hectare will increase, the survival will increase, the breeding period will decrease, the risk of disease will decrease and the profit will increase.
