Scampi farming is fast emerging in India for its very high return/hectare and ever increasing export demand. Since the hatchery produce seed are uniform in size, are of same species and without mixing with seed of any other unwanted and predatory fishes are available round the year unlike the natural seed which are available only during particular months in a year and hatchery can be designed to produce huge numbers of seed as per demand, the demand of hatchery produce seed has been ever increasing. Considering the vast areas being brought every year under scampi farming and the fact that absence of large scale places like Vijayawada & Nellore, there is very high demand for hatchery produce seed in the state of Maharashtra as well as in Gujarat, MP, Bihar, Bengal.
