GIANT PRAWN Conferences are the major conferences on the farming of Macrobrachium spp. The GIANT PRAWN conferences were founded by Michael New, OBE and the first one was held in Bangkok in 1980. GIANT PRAWN 2019 (GP 2019) follows the previous conference (GP2017) organised by Salin Krishna and Michael New at Asian Institute of Technology (AIT), Thailand, and two other previous conferences held in India. GP 2019 is coming to China for the first timeand is poised to be another major event highlighting the global farming and conservation of freshwater prawns of the genus Macrobrachium. Although the name could be taken to refer only to the Giant Malaysian prawn M. rosenbergii, in fact the event will encompass all species of Macrobrachium that are currently farmed.
This mega event is organized jointly by AIT, Thailand and Shanghai Ocean University (SHOU), China led by Salin Krishna at the Aquaculture and Aquatic Resources Management (AARM) Program of AIT and Xuxiong Huang at the College of Fisheries and Life Sciences of SHOU.
