ShrimpFeed represents one of the largest operational costs in aquaculture, making efficient feed management essential for profitable farming. In shrimp culture, feed pellets often lose nutrients due to leaching and poor water stability, resulting in feed wastage and lower productivity.
VapGel is a scientifically formulated protein-based feed binder designed to improve the water stability of feed pellets while minimizing nutrient loss. Its unique combination of soluble proteins, food additives, and chemo-attractants creates strong inter-particle bonding, making pellets more durable and attractive to shrimp. This ensures better feed intake, improved digestion, optimized FCR, and healthier growth throughout the culture cycle.
Recommended For
Suitable for:
- Vannamei Shrimp Farming
- Tiger Shrimp Farming
- Intensive Shrimp Culture
- Semi-Intensive Aquaculture
- Commercial Feed Management Programs
When to Use
VapGel is recommended during:
- Daily feed preparation
- Feed coating before feeding
- Intensive culture systems
- High feed conversion management
- Poor pellet stability conditions
- Nutrient loss reduction
- Throughout the culture cycle for improved feed utilization
How It Works
VapGel forms a strong protein-based bond around feed pellets, significantly improving their water stability and reducing nutrient leaching. Its chemo-attractants stimulate shrimp feeding behavior, encouraging better feed intake. The improved pellet integrity allows shrimp more time to consume the feed, reducing wastage while maximizing nutrient utilization, growth performance, and feed efficiency.
