Could you tell me in brief about the background history of " Everlive Shrimp spawn production Industry " and its work process?

Everlive Co, Ltd. is situated on 3.5 acres of land Ma Zin village, Thandwe Township in Rakhine State. The total investment is 7 million. We have built 500-ton ponds and water tanks. For shrimp breeding, we've built 34-ponds.
Our Co. intends to produce 15-million spawns each time.
In shrimp spawn productions, there are roughly 2 main functions.
- The 1st step is water preparing. To disseminate the shrimp seed, the water is necessary to be purificated twice.
- The 2nd step is shrimp harvesting. To obtain the shrimp spawns, model prawn species are collected from the sea and put couple into the reproductive tank until the eggs are ready to become spawns. After 24 hours the eggs hatch into spawns
- There are three steps in the transformation from the shrimp larvae to spawn, which take from 8 to 10 days. They are:
- After transformation of the 3 steps, we've shrimp post-larvae, which are kept, in that tank for 15 days.

With the aims of increasing prawn-breeding camps along the Rakhine Coast, extended production of prawns through modern techniques and sufficient distribution of prawn spawns to other regions, are developing very quickly.
