Kochi : The
Coastal Aquaculture Authority has approved 16 products of Kings Infra’s
Aquaculture Healthcare Division in its published list of CAA Approved
Antibiotic-free Aquaculture Inputs on 21st October,
2024. The approval is for a period of 5 years.
In its
quest for providing sustainable aquaculture solutions, Kings Infra R&D
team, headed by Dr. N. Pushparajan developed the new product formulations over
the last two years at the Kings Infra R&D facility at Tuticorin. A series
of commercial trials have been successfully conducted at the Kings Aquafarm at
Chippikkulam, Tuticorin.
The range of
aqua healthcare products include micro & macro mineral mixes, feed
supplements, water, soil and probiotics, immunostimulants, ammonia, nitrate and
nitrite reducers, white gut, white muscle healers, vitamin mixes, herbal growth
promoters, pathogen controllers and organic feed binders.
The same products used in Kings Aquafarm to create the world record of
80 gms Vannamei shrimps will now be available commercially under “AQUA KING”
brand.
In addition to the certifications of the Coastal Aquaculture Authority,
the products have also received ISO 9001:2015, ISO 22000-2018, GMP and FSSAI
certifications and are packed under strict quality supervision.
The
approval by the Coastal Aquaculture Authority and its certification of our
products as “CAA Approved Antibiotic-free Aquaculture inputs” is yet another
affirmation of our relentless pursuit and commitment to produce sustainable
anti-biotic free, healthy proteins through aquaculture.
We believe in sustainability and globally accepted good aquaculture
practices with thrust on traceability, quality, health and ecological balance.
Our aim is to make available these CAA approved, antibiotic-free aquaculture
inputs to the Aquafarmers to enable them to get higher productivity and better
quality in order to command a premium price in international markets.
The Company is offering training to aquafarmers at its facility in
Tuticorin for SISTA360 protocols using the new aqua healthcare products. The
adoption of SISTA360 protocols including usage of Aqua King products is
expected to reduce the production cost and considerably improve productivity
and profitability of aquafarming.
Kings Infra is in the forefront in adopting technological changes and
innovations, making conscious and sustained efforts to improve upon our
operational efficiency, quality and productivity through a community-oriented,
participatory approach.
