Client: El Rosario, Naturisa, Mar Bravito and SONGA (The SEA QUEST group).
Description: Group of farms that banded together to start a genetics program.
Service provided: This group started the first mass selection genetics program for P. vannamei in Ecuador. We designed and built a maturation facility and hatchery (Sea Quest) and began an arduous mass selection process using 6 sources of PLs prior to the onset of WSSV in Ecuador. WSSV shut the program down though it was never completely closed and the model became a widely copied model in Ecuador. Ecuador's continued success today can be partly attributed to this genetic selection program.
Client: Champmar and Cresbio
Description: Two medium sized hatcheries.
Service Provided: Complete technical audit on all facets of production with evaluation of existing protocols and problem areas potentially affecting production.
