Abstract

Greenpeace and whitespots notw ithstanding, the six billion dollar shrimp farming industry manages to hover at the close to one million metric ton production level it has been at since 1995. After a spectacular 26.4% average annual growth between 1984 to 1991, the industry managed to squeak by with a 2.2% average annual growth between 1991 to 1997. The industry appears to have reached its plateau since 1992. Although there are signs of decline, don’t betonit — the 1997 contraction was less than 1%. Meanwhile new players continue to come in and may just boost total production.
