Aquaculture the soft method. Unima has opted for a low density farming model: 5 to 10 shrimps per m2 against more than 50 in intensive farming. This choice allows it to guarantee a sustainable production of high quality shrimp. The Group's two farms cover 1,600 ha of natural clay and produce more than 5,000 tonnes of shrimp per year. 18 parameters of the surrounding ecosystem are constantly analyzed. The shrimp feed comes in part from the natural production of the ponds. It is supplemented by the supply of nutrients of marine and plant origin, controlled and soon produced by the Group. Drug additives, GMOs and terrestrial animal meal are banned from Unima farms . The prawns grow at ease, in conditions close to their original environment, which gives them an incomparable flavor and texture and allows them to reach a large size. Unima is the first company in the world to have successfully domesticated the species Penaeus monodon. It thus permanently has healthy and controlled parents and does away with the need to take them from the natural environment.
