Each pool has a volume of one cubic meter which can be filled with 12,000 vaname shrimp seeds.

"For new farmers, they can apply this technology at a cost of Rp. 20 million," said Kukuh when met at the IPB Marine Laboratory, Ancol, Jakarta, Kukuh said the value of Rp 20 million could be used to apply the technology in the vaname shrimp nursery business. With the value of the investment, farmers will get a filter pool with ultra intensive microbubble technology and eight pools made of sturdy plastic with a diameter of 3 meters. ![IMG_20190506_151741.jpg](https://serey.io/imageupload_data/a65877c259e8da29c4d6be7d06923ebb6c371c7f) Each pool has a volume of one cubic meter which can be filled with 12,000 vaname shrimp seeds. Kukuh said that farmers can harvest shrimp after 21 nursery days with a total of 96 thousand that weigh 48 kilograms. The price of seeds per head is Rp. 35, while the selling price is Rp. 100. With this figure, Kukuh claimed that the cultivator's gross income reached Rp. 9.6 million. While the profits after deducting production costs, amounting to Rp 4.7 million. Head of KKP's Research and Human Resources Agency Sjarief Widjaja inaugurated the launch of the new technology. According to Sjarief, shrimp farming in general has not been able to have an impact on small-scale farmers or households, because most of them are still dominated by large capital farmers. Another problem is the limited location of cultivation because it is far from the source of sea water or brackish. "To overcome this problem, engineering of environmentally friendly and sustainable aquaculture technology is needed, one of which is the development of Microbubble Technology with the integration of the Recirculating Aquaculture System (RAS) for vaname shrimp cultivation," Syarif said. ![IMG_20190506_151749.jpg](https://serey.io/imageupload_data/e9081d4a6e930560f5e3d85a532aea519994f2b5) Kukuh further said, the technology could be developed with a density of approximately 1,000 vaname shrimp per cubic meter, so that the productivity of shrimp produced was very high. "Before the invention of this new technology, vaname shrimp cultivation was highest in supra-intensive cultivation with a density of around 400 vaname shrimp per cubic
