This was our 5th year raising prawn/shrimp. We are planning to raise talapia
in cages above the shrimp once again this year. Shrimp season will begin around
the last weekend in May or the first weekend in June. This is when the juvenile
shrimp will be introduced into the ponds. Prawns/shrimp will be ready for harvest
in September. Our next harvest will be in Sept. 2010.
