    Am in Doha, State of Qatar. Would like to know in detail if you have any promoters for a Tiger, White or Pink prawns farm to be started here as none exists and the market is good. Presently from Iran, Saudi Arabia & UAE are imported. As Qatar shares the same open waters, I believe it is feasible. Need to know the land required for Open sea farming and Inland and the cost of the project. Local friend interested . Visit visas can be arranged for personal inspection of land & water samples, etc. Would like a reply ASAP.

    Hi @Jeston, I was referred to you by a lady called Nicola who said you would be able to help me. I am a small scale farming mother (crops, chickens) and would like to find out more about shrimp/ prawn farming. I have a cyber'friend' in USA that has inspired me to learn more about shrimp/ prawn farming as she has been so successful with it. I am having trouble locating precise information about how to start such a venture, legislation around the process of farming shrimp/prawn, training to be successful at farming shrimp/ prawn and so forth...

    Please could you help me with more detailed information on all my above questions? I would also greatly appreciate it if you could put me into contact with the appropriate contact person(s) for:
    - training
    - registering as an authorised shrimp/ prawn farmer
    - legislation & criteria for running such a farming business
    And any other people/ organisations that I need to know of. If however you are not able to provide me with all the needed information, please would you be able to provide me at least one contact persons details that could further assist me on finding out more? I live in RSA on a farm. I would like to start small-scale to first get comfortable with all the aspects of shrimp farming before expanding it into a bigger business. Please could you contact me via e-mail with feedback/ answers / info, as this is the best method of communication for me. Please, you would be helping me greatly. Thanking you in advance. Jessica

  • Joel R said on January 27, 2013
    Hi, my name is Joel and I live in southern Alberta Canada I love to grow plants and with the weather here I have begun to set up indoor aquaponics systmes and now I am wondering about how to go about setting up a system to farm shrimp. I would like to start small of course and see how things go and then potentially expand to a bigger space but for now just small. I literally know nothing about shrimp farming but I love to eat them and I enjoy growing things. I would like to know what sort of system I will need to farm roughly 40-80 prawns or so for now or maybe even less depending on how much space they need.. Also where to get the prawns in the first place, really anything you can do to help would be a bonus. Thanks
