Abstract

A field trial was conducted to assess the application of cinnamon essential oil (EOCIN) in the super-intensive culture of white shrimp (Penaeus vannamei). The objective of this study is to determine the efficacy of EOCIN on growth performance and prophylaxis in prevention against two common diseases in farmed shrimps, specifically acute hepatopancreatic necrosis disease (AHPND) and Enterocytozoon hepatopenaei (EHP). The EOCIN dose regime, set at 1.5% (v/w kg feed), was administered for 14 days in two series of application. The experiment was carried out in two replicates for the EOCIN and control involving four (4) tank cultures, 34 m in diameter with estimation of 300,000 pieces of shrimps per tank at stocking density of 300 pieces/m² in a single cycle of culture production. An increased in weight gain of shrimp from EOCIN group was recorded compared to control, particularly in grow-out shrimps at DOC40-56 after completion of 28-days of EOCIN application. Shrimp Specific Growth Rate (SGR) showed a compensatory growth of 4.5856% day^-1 from the EOCIN group compared with control, 4.0586% day^-1. Average daily weight gain for EOCIN (0.2328 g/day) was higher than control (0.1733 g/day), with survival rates of 80% and 75%, respectively. The FCR for EOCIN was lower (1.503) compared to control (2.014). The EOCIN additive regime used in this study improved the growth performance of white shrimps in particular, prevention against AHPND and control low prevalence of EHP infection detected in the early culture.
