Shrimp Farming: Industry Overview
Shrimp farming is a rapidly growing industry, particularly in coastal regions where brackish water and warm temperatures are ideal for shrimp cultivation. As the global demand for shrimp rises, aquaculture farmers are increasingly adopting advanced techniques for shrimp breeding, water quality management, and harvest techniques to improve efficiency and profitability. Shrimp farming is an essential part of the global seafood market and a lucrative business opportunity for aquaculture entrepreneurs.
