Abstract

Much has been said about the country’s shrimp industry. It has made millionaires out of the first shrimp farmers and hatchery owners and equally impoverished a fair share of them too. Many are still dreaming of the boom years of the last decade which they hope would come back. Unfortunately, it is not so, With infectious disease hounding the industry coupled with high costs of inputs, lack of quality shrimp broodstock and a lot of other reasons, it is doubtful whether there would be a shrimp boom redux. Surprisingly, there are still those who are into it, surviving - and making money too! In this mixed bag of random interviews with some shrimp industry practitioners, we get a glimpse of both the bleak and the bright perceptions of those inside the industry.
