  • Impacts and Challenges Associated with Shrimp Cultivation in Parulia Union, Satkhira, Bangladesh: an Empirical Study
    J. Asiat. Soc. Bangladesh, Sci. 45(1): 55-69, June, 2019 IMPACTS AND CHALLENGES ASSOCIATED WITH SHRIMP CULTIVATION IN PARULIA UNION, SATKHIRA, BANGLADESH: AN EMPIRICAL STUDY SHAMIMA PRODHAN*, BIVUTI BHUSHAN SIKDER AND MAHBUBA NASREEN Institute of Disaster Management and Vulnerability Studies, University of Dhaka, Dhaka-1000, Bangladesh Abstract This paper offers an overview of an empirical study conducted at Parulia union in Satkhira district, Bangladesh on unplanned shrimp culture, practiced by masses that ultimately led to serious environmental degradation and socioeconomic consequences such as salinity intrusion, decline in water and soil qualities, reduction in agricultural productions, decrease in cattle production, migration, and human health hazards. The real scenarios give evidences of the impacts of imposed shrimp cultivation and the associated challenges faced by the communities including reduction in cultivable land area (59.8%), increase of Gher area (48.0%), increase of soil salinity (74.5%), reduction in vegetable production (67.6%), reduction in agriculture farming (67.6%), reduction in freshwater fish culture (63.7%), impacts on livelihood patterns and reduction in local varieties of crops, fruit trees, and plants. Major challenges identified by the respondents are: reduction in soil quality (41.2%), reduction in water quality (38.2%), social problems (20.6%), problems in getting safe drinking water (19.6%), landlessness (35.3%), migration (34.4%), outbreak of common diseases (19.6%) etc. Urgency of a national policy framework addressing the issue holistically is of grave importance to solve the problem. Key words: Impact, Shrimp cultivation, Salinity intrusion, Environmental degradation Introduction Shrimp (Penaeus monodon) culture was mainstreamed in Bangladesh since 1970s (Rahman and Hossain 2013).

  • Impact of Shrimp Cultivation on Agriculture: a Study in Parulia Union of Satkhira District Shamima Prodhan1*, Dr
    International Journal of Environmental & Agriculture Research (IJOEAR) ISSN [2454-1850] [Vol-2, Issue-1, January- 2016] Impact of shrimp cultivation on agriculture: A study in Parulia union of Satkhira district Shamima Prodhan1*, Dr. Mahbuba Nasreen2 1Lecturer, Institute of Disaster Management and Vulnerability Studies (IDMVS), University of Dhaka 2Director and Professor, Institute of Disaster Management and Vulnerability Studies, University of Dhaka Abstract— Transformation of land use pattern from agriculture to massive shrimp cultivation has been taking place in the coastal areas of Bangladesh. The present study attempts to find out various impacts associated with shrimp cultivation in Parulia union of Debhata upazila, Satkhira. A three months long field study was carried out in 2014 in twelve villages of the unions under study. The data were collected through a combination of qualitative and quantitative approaches: questionnaire surveys, focus groups discussions (FGD), field observation, key informants interview (KII) and secondary materials. The research revealed that shrimp cultivation has direct impact on agriculture in the study location. Though the traditional occupation of people in the area was agriculture (98%, N=102), however, after introduction of commercial shrimp cultivation (approximately 20 to 25 years ago) people in the area are overwhelmingly engaged in shrimp cultivation (86%, N=72). Due to encroachment of agricultural land by shrimp farm present land use strategies in the studied area have also changed drastically. Presently only 42.2 percent of respondents own agriculture land (N=102) whereas about 91.2 percent of respondents (N=102) own gher in the study area. Average agriculture land of respondent households in the area has also been reduced from 3.37 bigha to 1.45 bigha, whilst area and number of ghers of respondent households are increasing.
