Background

What we know:

• More than 400,000 tons(1) of Freshwater prawns, worth US$6.9 billlion(2), are consumed globally each year.

• Industry growth over the decade has been steady at 27.4%(3)

• Malaysia is unable to meet demand due to inadequate production volume(3)

​

The solution - All Male Giant Prawns:

• 100% male broodstock

• Virus and pathogen resistant

• Traditional cross breeding techniques only, no GMOs!

​

All male harvests can result in 3x larger harvests(4), grow to harvest size in 4 months (compared to 9 months typically) which can net the average farmer up to 134% yield per year(5).
