Full text not available from this repository. (Request a copy)Abstract
Thailand effectively utilizes technology at all levels in shrimp hatcheries, farms, feed companies, and processing plants to maintain its position as the world's largest shrimp-farming nation. Its competitive business climate also leads to innovation and increasing productivity. The country's recent and dramatic switch from black tigers to disease-resistant Pacific white shrimp has significantly increased profits. The domestication of Pacific white shrimp changed the face of aquaculture in the early 1990s. The development of specific pathogen-free Penaeus vannamei stocks and subsequent breeding in the United States led to rapid adoption of the domesticated shrimp throughout the Western Hemisphere and Asia. Increasing global production has triggered lower shrimp pricing.
