A review on pathogenic bacteria that potentially threaten the environment of aquaculture: controlling and aquaculture sustainability in Pontang, Serang

Abstract

Pontang District located in Banten Bay has the potential for the development of shrimp farming. One of the challenges of shrimp farming is a disease caused by Vibrio bacterial. One way to control disease is to apply the principle of biosecurity to support sustainable aquaculture. In some cases, the Vibrio bacterial group is known to have caused serious illness in shrimp ponds. This paper reviews some of the literature on the concept of biosecurity in controlling disease for sustainable aquaculture that might be implemented in Pontang District. The role of local authorities is very important in the implementation of biosecurity. Disease control by farmers can be done by doing water management, good production processes and routine health monitoring.
