Tea seed powder is a natural byproduct derived from the seeds of the Camellia plant, commonly used in aquaculture for its saponin content. The saponins in Tea seed powder act as natural pesticides, effectively eliminating unwanted fish and pests in shrimp ponds and other aquatic farming environments. Its biodegradable nature makes it environmentally friendly, as it breaks down without leaving harmful residues. Additionally, Tea seed powder helps prepare ponds for shrimp farming by reducing predators while being non-toxic to shrimp and other beneficial aquatic species. It is a preferred choice for sustainable aquaculture management.

Industrial Uses

1. Water Treatment

  • Fish Control: Tea seed powder is commonly applied in shrimp and fish farms to eliminate unwanted fish species that compete for resources or act as predators to shrimp and other valuable aquatic species.
  • Pond Preparation: Before stocking shrimp or fish, Tea seed powder is used to cleanse ponds of harmful organisms, creating an optimal environment for cultivation.
  • Parasite and Pest Control: The saponins in Tea seed powder act as natural pesticides, controlling parasites and pests like snails and nematodes that may harm farmed aquatic life.
  • Algae Management: In aquaculture ponds, Tea seed powder can help control algae growth, preventing excessive blooms that can deplete oxygen and harm fish.
  • Water Quality Enhancement: By naturally breaking down in the water, Tea seed powder helps maintain water clarity and balance, promoting a healthier aquatic environment.
  • Non-Toxic to Shrimp: Unlike chemical pesticides, Tea seed powder is non-toxic to shrimp and other beneficial species, making it a sustainable and eco-friendly choice for shrimp farming operations.
  • Mollusk Control: Tea seed powder is effective in controlling harmful mollusks, such as clams and snails, which can infest aquaculture ponds and compete with or prey on valuable species like shrimp and fish.
  • Detoxification: It aids in detoxifying aquaculture ponds by breaking down organic waste materials, thus improving the overall water quality and reducing the risk of diseases caused by poor water conditions.
  • Predator Elimination: In shrimp farming, Tea seed powder is often used to eliminate crabs and other predators that can feed on or damage shrimp larvae, helping to increase survival rates of farmed species.
  • Disease Prevention: Regular use of Tea seed powder helps reduce bacterial loads in the water, minimizing the risk of infectious diseases that can devastate aquaculture crops.
  • Fertilizer for Pond Bottoms: After breaking down in the water, Tea seed powder enriches the pond bottom, providing organic matter that serves as a natural fertilizer, promoting healthy algae growth for fry and larval feeding.
