File: shrimp farming in Germany.png (2.23 MB, 1024x1536)

I remember /biz/ used to do a lot of shrimp farming back when crypto crashed and there was nothing to do.
Is it still feasible? Now that the goyim have to deal in the real world again, because all the fake white collar jobs are reserved for boomers only, is shrimp farming the remaining way to get rich?

the jew fears the indoor shrimp farmer
>>
>>62251747
I'm ngmi with this method because shrimp are just kind of nasty creatures that I do not want to touch or be involved with. Probably oversaturated at this point after the meme took off too

Ai generated images are so disgusting. Truly no taste.

I've thought about it but Idk how I would sell them to anyone

Just talk to the local restaurants and guess

Even the fonts have this tasteless and immediately noticeable AI quality, it’s uncanny.

Chinese are the only ones I could think of that would say yes and be decent to work with.

If you want to farm shrimp, and have access to a large pond, do a biofloc system. That way, you only have to add fertiliser, not those expensive feed pellets.

However, shrimp require rather warm temperatures, so not really possible to open-air farm them in middle/norther europe or US.

>t. guy who worked with aquaculture for a decade, though not with shrimp farming exactly.

You can do it indoors right?
>>
>>62257104
Indoors is fine, but adds to the cost, since you now have to pay for the building, heating, etc.

The absolutely simplest and cheapest "seafood" to raise is either carps or catfish, since both thrive in terrible, muddy waters.

Shrimp are somewhat harder to raise, especially if you want them to breed to get new generations of shrimp.

A controversial method for shrimp is called eyestalk ablation, where you literally cut off the eyes of the female shrimps, as this induces them to spawn earlier and more consistently.

It also requires you to catch and sex determine the shrimp, which quite labour intensive.

I know they "just farm shrimp, bro" is just a meme, but it is not an easy way to make money. Iirc, there's only like one or two commercial on-land shrimp farmers in Europe. Most farms are in south-east Asia, as the temperature is suitable and labour costs are almost nonexistent.

Turns out, there's more than one or two shrimp farms in Europe now. Stuff has indeed happened since I switched careers two years ago.
>>
Wait, people actually did this unironically?
>>
>>62257919
So it was a total scam and it's not actually possible?
I wanted an extremely cheap business to do and this was cheap and perfect for the job.
>>
>>62251747
>monthly costs €215-€350
>revenue per 6month cycle €245
>expected profit €1000-€2000
now thats some nice math
>>62258239
if you have your own property and experience with keeing animals/aquaristic and tinkering on a setup that is healthy and churns out shrimp reliably with low costs, sure go for it
if you want a low cost, high profit business producing food, grow mushrooms
>>
>>62258335
I'm trying this now, but I am in a bad area for selling them. Also, I only have one mushroom growing. I have some techniques I want to try though.
>>
>>62258239
Aquaculture is generally very expensive to set up, unless you already have a large pond and want to farm animals suitable for that pond.

As soon as you start creating an artificial environment such as a large tank in a shed, you have to spend money regulating the temperatures, circulating the water, checking the water quality (hardness, nitrite levels, nitrate levels, ammonium levels, pH, oxygen content, etc etc etc).

With normal farm animals, you can just sorta put them in a field, and they'll be fine.

How often do you have to do these things also rent is low on businesses right? You can rent a room far from the city for cheap.
>>
>>62259114
Oxygen content should be monitored constantly. The circulation pumps must also always be running, otherwise you risk the entire tank dying.

The hardness, nitrate, nitrate, ammonium should probably be fine to do weekly, maybe twice a week. It depends a lot on how much water you replace each day. The ammonium/ammonia level is the most critical of those, as it can easily kill the shrimp if it goes too high. Nitrite and nitrate will also do so, but at much higher concentrations.

I'm off for tonight. If the thread is alive tomorrow, I'll check in again.

Do you do mushroom farming? Any advice on it?
