Their recent funding round of US$13.1M will help them expand outside of Java to Sulawesi and Sumatra.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Beyond just focusing on improving the productivity of shrimp farms, Liris believes that JALA can help in environmental sustainability. She shared, \u201cThere are so many ponds that are sitting idle here; if we just focus on using technology to improve the existing shrimp farms in Indonesia, we can do so much to tackle the issue of food security and supply the entire world with shrimp.\u201d<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u201cWe can replant mangroves there while intensifying farming on the ponds \u2013 preserving the environment, but also producing more food,\u201d she added.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Get the full story <a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/3TOPhuW\">here<\/a>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Of shrimp and sustainability<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":4755,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[322],"tags":[370],"class_list":["post-4754","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-daily","tag-jala"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v19.1 -
