In recent years researchers have been attempting to develop shrimp production technologies that are better suited to the conditions in the United States than the traditional semi-intensive shrimp production systems. Much of this effort has been devoted to the development of indoor recirculating systems for Litopenaeus vannamei. These systems are attractive to U.S. shrimp producers because they allow the shrimp to be cultured year round, and minimize environmental impacts.
