In Control

Malaysia-based Star Online reports that Khazanah Nasional Bhd aims to become the largest shrimp producer in Malaysia by the end of 2009. The company’s Blue Archipelago Bhd has launched a plan to expand or develop the capacity of three shrimp aquaculture facilities, such as the previously underperforming Kerpan farm. They espouse a highly controlled production method. Geomembrane-lined aquaculture pits are used frequently in controlled developments and can help increase yields.
