  • Production and Export of Shrimp of Bangladesh : Problems and Prospects
    Progress. Agric. 20(1 & 2) : 163 – 171, 2009 ISSN 1017-8139 PRODUCTION AND EXPORT OF SHRIMP OF BANGLADESH : PROBLEMS AND PROSPECTS M. M. Rahman and M. M. Hossain Department of Fisheries, Ministry of Fisheries and Livestock, Bangladesh, Dhaka ABSTRACT A study on problems and prospects of shrimp production and marketing from Bangladesh on the basis of secondary information was carried out from July to October 08. Shrimp farming has emerged one of the important economic activities in Bangladesh and become the second largest export industry after garments. Shrimp aquaculture in coastal areas plays a major role providing employment, income and food security to remote coastal people where alternative livelihood options are limited. Shrimp culture system is extensive to improved extensive type with total production of 55000 mt of brackish water shrimp and 12000 mt of freshwater shrimp. In coastal Bangladesh, shrimp culture has led to many social and environmental problems. In export markets, shrimps are great but many challenges remain ahead because of increasing requirements of quality, food hygiene and development of technological and trade barriers in large shrimp markets in USA and EU countries. However, challenges lies with good aquaculture practice and competitive export, which are the effective tools for poverty alleviation and national development program for Bangladesh. Key words : Production, Export, Marketing, Shrimp INTRODUCTION Shrimp plays an important role in the economy of Bangladesh. It is the second largest export industries after garments from which Bangladesh earned as US$ 456 m in the year 2006 (BFFEA, 2008). Among shrimp producing countries, Bangladesh ranks fourth with respect to area of shrimp farming and sixth in volume of production.

Abstract VAC stands for the first three letters of three words: Garden (V), pond (A), cage (C), referring to a small-intensive farming ecosystem model to solve the shortages of food and develop the rural economy in Vietnam. It has been shaped and developed for nearly four decades since the Vietnam War ended and the country got reunited in 1975. At first, the VAC economy might have seemed to be small, and just an "informal economy". However, it has gradually become an important model for rural farm households to produce their self-sufficient food and income as a strategic tool of livelihood which was recommended for the poor to overcome the shortfall of food with limited resources of agricultural production during the past period of transition time.

  • Subsector Assessment of the Nigerian Shrimp and Prawn Industry

PCE-I-00-99-00003-00 Agricultural Development Assistance in Nigeria Task Order No. 812 November 2002 FOREWORD Under the Rural and Agricultural Incomes with a Sustainable Environment (RAISE) IQC, Chemonics International and its Agricultural Development Assistance in Nigeria (ADAN) project are working with USAID/Nigeria and the Government of the Federal Republic of Nigeria (GON) to stimulate Nigeria’s economic growth through increased competitiveness in the world market. A key component of this effort centers on determination of specific agricultural products with the greatest potential for increasing foreign exchange and employment. ADAN specifically targets increased agricultural commodity production and exports, and seeks to boost domestic sales as well through opportunistic ‘fast track’ activities, which are loosely based on development of networks and linkages to expedite trade. At a stakeholders’ conference in Abuja, Nigeria in January 2002, participants identified five Nigerian products that held the greatest potential for export growth. Chemonics/ADAN was charged with conducting sub-sector assessments of these products, and then developing industry action plans (IAPs) for those that indicated sufficient market opportunities. The following sub-sector assessment examines market trends, opportunities and constraints, both international and domestic; production and processing requirements; operating environment issues; and recommendations to address the needs of the Nigerian industries. A separate IAP provides a strategic framework for actions, which the Nigerian and international private sector, Nigerian government, and donors should undertake to improve the viability of these industry clusters.

Problems and Prospects of Shrimp Farming in Bangladesh. AIUB Bus Econ Working Paper Series, No 2010-05, http://orp.aiub.edu/WorkingPaper/WorkingPaper.aspx?year=2010 November 2010 Copyright © 2010 American International University-Bangladesh (AIUB) 1 Problems and Prospects of Shrimp Industry in Bangladesh: An Analysis Abstract Shrimp is one of the leading exportable products in Bangladesh. Bangladesh is earning about 500 millions of foreign currency yearly by exporting shrimp and contributing 3.78% in GDP. This study intends to find out the problems related to the shrimp industry in Bangladesh to export in the international markets. As such a research study has been undertaken on shrimp farmers, experts and government employees of the shrimp farming areas. To gauge the prospects of shrimp farming, the south-western region of Bangladesh has been considered as the core farming areas. These three categories of stakeholders are related to the problems and prospects of shrimp industry in Bangladesh. A total of 100 stakeholders were selected to respond. The author suggested that problems including high mortality rate, lack of virus screening facility and the unfair practices should be taken into account for the both operative and strategic level without delay. Enforcement of food security from the external sector of the government ought to be discovered.

  • The Management of Coastal Penaeid Shrimp Fisheries 287
    i’ 282 S. GARCIA 1. INTRODUCTION Shrimp are one of the world’s most valuable fishery resources. The present total landings are estimated to be around 1.8 x lo6 tons, and an additional demand for cs ‘ 200,000 tons is foreseen by 1990 (Sribhibhadh 1). Tropical penaeid shrimp landings amount to about 700,000 tons (Gulland and Rothschild 2) and their high value and strong demand on the markets of the richer countries (United States, Japan, Europe) were powerful incentives to the development of shrimp fisheries in the 1960s and 1970s. From 1977 to 1981, for instance, the landings increased by 22% and the value by about 60% in terms of U.S. dollars (International Trade Center 3). The high prices for shrimp on export markets have stimulated rapid development, leading in many cases to excessive effort, even with regulatory measures, which have usually been unable to prevent overinvestment, excessive production costs , low or even negative economic returns to the country, and perhaps an overall reduction in total catch value. Most potentially productive areas are now being exploited, and no major increase in landings of capture fisheries can be foreseen. As shrimp prices continue to rise and oil prices are presently decreasing (19861, there is a risk of additional fishing effort being injected into fisheries where conspicuous conflicts have already appeared between small-scale and offshore industrial shrimp fisheries, between shrimp and finfish fisheries, and between shrimp aquaculture and fisheries for the postlarval resources and for the markets. Most fisheries are now in a situation of economic overfishing, shrimp fisheries are the major source of conflict and problems in the tropical zone, and recruitment problems are presently receiving increased attention (Penn 4; Penn and Caputi 5; Garcia 6, 7).

The study investigated two distinct marketing system named general fish (white fish) marketing system and shrimp marketing channel. In the both market chain from producers to retailers the goods goes onward through a number of channel members like aratdar, foria, paiker, wholesalers, chalani, depot, and retailer. It was observed that the aratdar/auctioneer get 3 to 5% commissions from each auction by arranging the auction andcontractual activities and providing other facilities such as clean water supply, electricity, space, communication etc. A variety of personnel involved in arat likewise muhuri, koyal and labour etc having distinct salary level. The usual amount of the daily fish supply was 10-15 tones with a traded value between Tk 5 and 6 million and the volume varies relying on the variation in catches during peak or off-season.

    Seafood Watch Seafood Report Farmed Pacific White Shrimp Litopenaeus vannamei © Scandinavian Fishing Yearbook/www.scandfish.com Mexico Final Report January 7, 2010 Peter Bridson Aquaculture Research Manager Monterey Bay Aquarium and Irene Tetreault Miranda, Ph.D. Independent Contractor About Seafood Watch® and the Seafood Reports Monterey Bay Aquarium’s Seafood Watch® program evaluates the ecological sustainability of wild-caught and farmed seafood commonly found in the United States marketplace. Seafood Watch® defines sustainable seafood as originating from sources, whether wild-caught or farmed, which can maintain or increase production in the long-term without jeopardizing the structure or function of affected ecosystems. Seafood Watch® makes its science-based recommendations available to the public in the form of regional pocket guides that can be downloaded from the Internet (seafoodwatch.org) or obtained from the Seafood Watch® program by emailing [email protected]. The program’s goals are to raise awareness of important ocean conservation issues and empower seafood consumers and businesses to make choices for healthy oceans. Each sustainability recommendation on the regional pocket guides is supported by a Seafood Report. Each report synthesizes and analyzes the most current ecological, fisheries and ecosystem science on a species, then evaluates this information against the program’s conservation ethic to arrive at a recommendation of “Best Choices,” “Good Alternatives,” or “Avoid.” The detailed evaluation methodology is available upon request. In producing the Seafood Reports, Seafood Watch® seeks out research published in academic, peer-reviewed journals whenever possible. Other sources of information include government technical publications, fishery management plans and supporting documents, and other scientific reviews of ecological sustainability.
