Aquafuture Switzerland has developed a land-based biofloc shrimp farming system it hopes will catch on across the country's agricultural farmers.

The company, which was founded in 2014, took its first pilot farm online in 2015, co-founder Stacy Ciulik told the audience at the EuroShrimp event in Bremen, Germany, last week.

In 2017, Aquafuture's farm -- which it runs as Aemme Shrimp -- will produce three metric tons of vannamei shrimp, she said.

The company is now planning to sell licenses to investors and consult on "copy-and-paste" projects in the country.
