Angga is a shrimp farm technician in one of the farms in Bantul, Yogyakarta. Started out as a farm assistant, he is now entrusted to manage 11 ponds. In running the cultivation, he believes that the key is to open himself up to gain and share knowledge.

Initially, Angga still did trials and errors to figure out the best strategy for his farm and hopefully improve productivity. Realizing that various factors such as diseases and poor water quality can affect his cultivation success, Angga relied on the use of data to guide him in his cultivation.

After using the JALA App for 2 cycles, he found it easier to record his feed data, DoC, and water quality. Since he managed 11 ponds, recording all the data in a single app saved him from much hassle. He could simply show the results from his smartphone instead of using pen and paper.

Moreover, on JALA App, he could read cultivation tips, information on shrimp diseases, the latest updates from the shrimp industry, and shrimp prices in his area. He could also get consultation service from JALA’s responsive support team. Using well-recorded data, Angga believed that he could evaluate cultivation success based on its history and plan strategies for the next cultivation.
