A study was conducted in southwest coastal areas of Bangladesh to assess the status and to understand the degree of awareness of the FAO Code of Conduct for Responsible Fisheries among different stakeholders and its application in the area of shrimp culture in Bangladesh. Articles 9.1 and 9.4 of the Code were used for the investigation. Interviews with potential shrimp farmers and key informants at different level were undertaken for the investigation. A checklist was developed using both open and closed ended questions. Although Bangladesh is a signatory to the Code, virtually no significant efforts have been made to date to comprehend and elaborate the provisions of the Code within the context of Bangladesh. General awareness on the existence and significance of the FAO Code of Conduct, its scope, and purpose are yet to be increased for persons and institutions involved in shrimp aquaculture.
