Abstract

Aquaculture, particularly shrimp farming, has gained immense significance as a global food production sector. Despite its growth, shrimp aquaculture confronts challenges, notably the high cost of feed and nutritional deficiencies leading to diseases. This comprehensive overview delves into the critical nutritional requirements of shrimp, covering vitamins (C, E and B), minerals (calcium and phosphorus), essential fatty acids, and amino acids. Deficiencies or imbalances in these nutrients can result in various developmental abnormalities, weakened immune responses, and reduced growth rates in shrimp populations. Understanding and managing the specific dietary needs of shrimp species is vital for maintaining their health, improving growth, and ensuring sustainable aquaculture practices. The article synthesizes findings from numerous spotlighting, highlighting the diverse nutritional needs of different shrimp species and presenting strategies to address nutritional challenges in shrimp farming.

Keywords: Vitamin; Mineral; Essential Fatty Acid; Aminoacid
