It’s All About Genetics

Our intense genetic testing is far ahead of the current industry standards. Many companies have found it difficult to stabilize the environments in which the shrimp are raised. At API, we’ve found that selectively breeding shrimp that are tolerant of constantly changing conditions, have resulted in stronger stock that are able to survive in even the most challenging environments.
