Commercial culture of shrimp involves stocking of shrimp seeds (post larvae) in the ponds rearing
them to a marketable size and harvesting. Shrimp seeds for stocking are mostly procured from the commercial
shrimp hatcheries as the availability and quality of wild seeds varies. The number of shrimp hatcheries in India
has increased rapidly since the late 1980s. The total production of PL in India has increased with this hatchery
development to approximately 10 billion per year in 2002–2003, requiring up to an estimated 200000
broodstock per year. The poor management of the broodstock in the hatcheries and also the farms led to the
outbreak different diseases. In order to prevent this Pl quality will be improved. The present study was
conducted in a leading commercial hatchery situated at Mukkam, Vizianagarm (dist).A.P. The following
information are very much useful for hatcheries to produce high quality shrimp seeds. The broodstock quality
was checked by using amplification of DNA and PCR test. The w ater qualities such as healthy status of the
larval, microbial load . The length and size variation, effect of fouling organisms, MBV, necrosis and
endoaparasites in seeds. Stress test was also done for active and healthy seeds in the tanks by using formalin.
The general conclusion obtained from the present study is that the healthy and daily monitoring of the seeds
plays a vital role for giving quality seeds throughout the year. The present study is an association with a leading
shrimp hatchery and the results obtained are highly beneficial to other hatchery operators to produce high
quality shrimp seeds for a sustainable and ecofriendly aquaculture in India.
