"Starting from the initial two cycles with a yield of 24 kg/m³ each, to now successfully cultivating six cycles of Penaeus vannamei in a 2800 m³ aquaculture water volume, and achieving eight cycles per year, land based recirculating aquaculture system not only ensures high productivity but also stable yields!" Sun Jianming said.

China's aquaculture industry has always been a sunrise industry, with annual production reaching new heights. However, the available farming area has been decreasing year by year, and also with increasing environmental protection pressures, the development of sustainable high-density and high-efficiency land based aquaculture is the inevitable path for the development of China's aquaculture industry.

It is reported that the Institute of Oceanology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, has recently made new breakthroughs in closed recirculating shrimp farming technology. A fishfirst interview was conducted with the project leader, Researcher Sun Jianming from the CAS Key Laboratory of Experimental Marine Biology Institute of Oceanology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, to gain insight into their progress in recirculating aquaculture shrimp farming and the future prospects of this technology."
