Mobile Application
Introduction
We believe that to achieve the Blue Revolution and make aquaculture a world-class industry all the stakeholders must collectively embrace innovative technologies like mobile applications and IoT. The launch of our Royye Raju mobile application is a part of a larger effort to empower all the stakeholders in the value chain.
Our Royye Raju mobile application is designed to be an invaluable, comprehensive resource for everyone in the aquaculture ecosystem. This visual, user-friendly guide encompasses insights and features that farmer can use to reap a profitable crop and get one step closer to sustainable farming practices. The application considers the date, time and geographical details of the user to provide contextual experiences.
Through innovative and easy-to-use features that disseminate imperative information, the application aims to build resilience during outbreaks and shocks by improving access to information and economic opportunities and a plethora of practical knowledge.
Weather Updates
The effects and implications of climate changes on aquaculture production are expected to be both negative and positive although the negative effects outweigh the positive ones.
This feature helps the farmers in being prepared to battle or at least guard themselves against the adverse climatic conditions that could hinder the health of the shrimp and eventually the profitability of the crop.
Market Count Rates
The market rate for shrimp and fish is highly volatile and is subject to fluctuations caused by factors like demand, supply and the availability of manpower at the processing plants. It’s important for the farmers to be fully aware of the market rates being offered to avoid any fraudulency.
This feature shows the market rates that farmers a can ask for their breed of shrimp or fish in their geographical area.
Aqua School
The Netflix of Aquaculture!
This feature enables virtual learning through detailed lectures structured along the different phases of the lifecycle of the shrimp in addition to the steps to be taken while preparing the pond for culture. It provides in-depth technical know-how that is further supported by an option to either chat or talk to our experts to get custom suggestions to their unique pond conditions and advice on how to implement the practices covered in these videos.
Survival Calculator
Survival and growth have the greatest impact on the economic performance of shrimp production, and correct feeding is essential for both (Wyban et al. 1989). Monitoring the biomass of the crop regularly is an important aid in improving the food conversion ratio (FCR) and maximizing the growth rate, survival rate, yield and good management practices in shrimp farming. Our Survival Calculator is simple tool that helps farmers calculate how many shrimp is stocking in their pond.
Feed Calculator
Feed management strategies will be optimizing feed inputs, reducing feed conversion ratios (FCR) and reducing the potential impact on the culture and effluent water. Improvements in FCR have resulted in significant reductions in feed costs and subsequent improvement on the return on investment.
Our Feed Calculator is designed to be used as a management tool by the farmers to monitor the nutritional needs and feed costs of their operation more closely. When used correctly, the program will help the farmers estimate feed inputs correctly.
