Our farming journey
Healthy Shrimp · Healthy People · A Thriving Tomorrow
From hands-on shrimp farming to learning through science, our story brings together life in the ponds, the people who care for it and possibilities beyond the farm.
Good shrimp begins with good water, thoughtful people, and decisions we can explain.
Our approach
From the pond, a wider possibility
R. Mitrchai Farm's story began around 13 years ago with shrimp farming. Today, that journey connects with science, technology and new products, with the farm at the heart of the learning.

About the farm
R. Mitrchai Farm's story began around 13 years ago in Ban Laem, Phetchaburi. From raising shrimp, our journey has grown to connect with science and product development, while people and life in the ponds remain at its heart.
People behind the purpose
From pond care to partnership coordination, we value people, responsibility and shared learning.
Newly generated concepts illustrating team roles and workwear, not photographs of actual employees.

Close to the water. Attentive to every detail.

Connecting information, people and partnerships.
Science as a daily practice
Science helps us explore questions that experience alone may not answer, from changes in the water to shrimp health. We value connecting questions from the ponds with trials, laboratory work and specialist knowledge.
Interpret water-quality trends in context, not isolated readings detached from real conditions.
Connect observations, behaviour and test results to identify risks earlier.
Start with small trials, define stop-or-proceed criteria and record every lesson.

“Data matters when it helps people make better decisions.”
Sustainability in practice
We consider the whole cycle: resources, water, residual materials and the well-being of people and communities.
Use evidence to care for water and reduce waste, without claiming outcomes that have not been measured.
Include biodiversity and the surrounding landscape in farm planning.
Support safer work, share knowledge and include local people in progress.
Technology with purpose
Choose tools that reveal change earlier, reduce repetitive work and make the reasoning behind decisions traceable.

Purpose · Practice · Proof
Information for visitors, business partners and researchers. Explore an area below or ask the team for details.
For us, the farm is where the experience of shrimp farmers meets new knowledge. We want that learning to support the farm and open up more possibilities, from farming practice to food products.
Around 13 years of farming form the beginning of the story we want to share: from the shrimp ponds of Ban Laem, Phetchaburi, to an interest in science, tools and working with specialists.
The journey goes beyond the harvest. HEY SHRIMP shrimp extract soup is another chapter connecting the farm's experience with product development.
The farming timeline is based on the farm's account in 2026, not the legal entity's registration date.

Ask about HEY SHRIMP →Caring for shrimp means looking beyond growth to their environment and welfare. FAI lists R.MITRCHAI FARM PETCHBURI with its Trained Badge marked In Progress.
Checked on 20 September 2026: In Progress does not mean a badge has been awarded. For commercial documentation, ask our team about the latest scope and status.
View the FAI listing ↗ (opens in a new tab)Farmers know the details of daily life at the pond. Researchers and specialists bring another set of questions, approaches and tools. Collaboration becomes meaningful when these perspectives help us understand shrimp farming more clearly.
The farm identifies a network including KMUTT Bang Khun Thian, TISTR, NSTDA, DIPROM, KYTOS, TUF, GROBEST, the Department of Fisheries and research centres. Each collaboration has its own context; individual project stories should be read alongside the roles and dates involved.
Names are supplied by the farm. This does not mean that every organisation joins the same project, provides funding or endorses products.
Ask about a project →When something changes in a pond, the question is not only what happened, but how we can investigate what we see. Field observations and analysis offer complementary views of the same picture.
We believe a useful science story should follow the question, sampling and analysis through to the meaning and limitations of the findings, rather than stopping at a photograph of equipment or a single number.
If you are interested in laboratory work, equipment or a study visit, contact the team to discuss the topic and what can be made available before arranging a visit.
Discuss laboratory work & study visits →Alongside this website, the R.Mitrchai Farm page shares updates, photographs and posts at their original source, with the date and context of each story.

Common questions
Results will be published after review, with reporting periods, measurement methods and interpretation limits. Unverified performance figures are not displayed.
Visits depend on their purpose, scheduling and biosecurity requirements. Please describe your request using the contact form below.
We focus on practical problems with a clear owner, measurement plan, budget, timeline and stopping criteria if a trial does not deliver value.
Only published findings with supporting documentation should be used as evidence. Principles and goals must not be interpreted as certified results.
