Shrimp farming involves water treatment, thereby it is inevitable that measuring and monitoring water quality are essential. Water quality measurement generates a set of informative data for farmers, leading them to make informed decisions.
Given the importance of water quality measurement, farmers require a reliable tool that allows them to conduct daily measurement and monitoring. Therefore, JALA has introduced the most recent solution in the form of a more robust, accurate, and handy water quality measurement device. See the details below.
Baruni, the Water Quality Measurement Device
There are many different water quality measurement devices available today for pH, salinity, dissolved oxygen (DO), and temperature with varying prices and its own set of benefits. Likewise, JALA has been developing water quality measurement devices since 2017. Previously, JALA’s water quality measurement device was known as Baruno, which was inspired by Varuna, the god of oceans and waters.
This 2025, JALA upgraded the water quality measurement device and named it Baruni. Baruni is a smart water quality device that connects to the internet and has a more ergonomic design. It can measure five parameters at once: pH, temperature, salinity, DO, and oxidation-reduction potential (ORP). The measurement results will be uploaded directly to JALA’s online storage and accessible through JALA’s shrimp farm management application, JALA App.
The name Baruni is inspired from Varuni, the goddess of the sea in Hindu mythology and wife of Varuna, who inspired the name Baruno, which served as the predecessor of JALA’s water quality device. In addition to representing a protected aquatic environment, Baruni also reflects compassion and balance, as Varuni complements Varuna.
The name we chose reflects our commitment to supporting shrimp farming practitioners, maintaining ideal water quality, and preserving ecosystem balance. Baruni serves as a solution that promotes successful aquaculture through improved water management.
More Robust, Accurate, and Handy
Baruni is more reliable than other water quality measurement devices because it comes in a single measurement package, not just one but five parameters at once. The device’s compact, portable, and ergonomic dimensions make it ideal for use in farm environments. In addition, Baruni can save water quality data for up to 100 ponds.
Several water quality parameters, such as pH, temperature, and DO, are quite complex to measure since they are all correlated and influence one another. Baruni has calculated it by automatically compensating the values for more accurate readings.
Farm technicians do not need to manually record measurement results because the data are kept in the device and integrated with JALA App. Technicians can assess them through their smartphone or laptop anytime and anywhere.
