INVE Aquaculture and Dalan Animal Health announced they will collaborate to accelerate innovation in shrimp health, addressing one of the industry’s greatest challenges: disease management
As global demand for sustainable seafood continues to rise, innovative approaches to disease prevention are essential for a safe and nutritious food supply. Disease management remains one of the most pressing obstacles to sustainable shrimp production worldwide and has become critical for the sector’s resilience and future growth.
Dalan Animal Health is developing a groundbreaking vaccine technology targeting major pathogens affecting shrimp populations, including white spot syndrome virus (WSSV), one of the most devastating diseases in shrimp farming. Their novel approach focuses on broodstock vaccination, representing a paradigm shift in how the industry approaches disease prevention.
INVE Aquaculture, a global leader in early-stage shrimp nutrition and health, brings more than four decades of expertise in developing practical solutions that reach one in three farmed shrimp worldwide. Through this collaboration, Dalan and INVE aim to explore how their complementary strengths could accelerate the development of innovative, scalable approaches to shrimp disease prevention.
Dr Olivier Decamp, R&D and Business Development Health Director of INVE Aquaculture said,
“By combining Dalan’s innovation in shrimp vaccines with INVE’s reach and expertise, we can accelerate the delivery of practical disease-prevention tools to farmers.”
Dr. Annette Kleiser, CEO of Dalan Animal Health, added,
“Dalan is committed to enhancing the sustainability of global aquaculture and food supply. We are excited to collaborate with INVE to explore synergies between INVE’s global reach and our vaccine platform, accelerating healthy innovation in shrimp broodstock management.”
The collaboration underscores both companies’ commitment to helping shrimp farmers protect their operations, reduce the risks of disease-related losses, and ensure the long-term sustainability of the industry.
